Overview

This stunning bike tour in Spain starts in the medieval city of Segovia. Renowned for its remarkable Aqueduct, this landmark in the city is an impressive feat of civil engineering and continues to be one of the most beautiful urban sites in the world. Your overnights and circular routes along the way will showcase Spain at its best: rich in history and culture, delicious local wines and gastronomy (tapas!), and an abundance of scenic eye-candy. You will be transported back in time, gazing upon the Pedraza Castle dating back to the 13th century! A highlight for sure will be Duratón Canyon Nature Reserve. The powerful forces of the River Duratón have excavated deep gorges in these limestone lands, and a great number of large birds call this place home. In Segovia, you will stay in a three star hotel in the very heart of historic Segovia. Day 2 through 7 you will be in high quality, small, rural accommodations and in Sepulveda, you will stay in a unique heritage hotel. Please refer to each day’s details in the itinerary for a list of the preferred accommodations based on availability. If the preferred hotel list is not available, a hotel of equal standard will be contracted. This tour is run by Senderos y Pueblos. We value the strong relationship we have with our local partners and the services we provide. We are not a broker. We do not inflate tour prices. We are simply travelers helping travelers.
