MTB in Costa Blanca

Enjoy really nice cycling in the Spanish mountains

Costa Blanca North is known for its mild climate and is therefore ideal for cycling. Away from the beaches and further inland is an area where you can enjoy fantastic mountain biking. Mountains like "Puig Campana" and "Leon Dormido" hide beautiful natural paths where you can enjoy yourself undisturbed. The tracks you can expect are quite technical, steep (down but also sometimes up), from rocky to flowy trails. You really get the feeling that you are driving in untouched nature and that while you only max. 30 km from civilization.

Program

Day 1

You arrive by plane at Alicante airport, are picked up by bus and then driven to Polop where you arrive around lunchtime. We start by familiarizing ourselves with our bikes and then explore the neighborhood and familiarize ourselves with the terrain. Today you will cycle about 25 km and 700 meters of altitude before you can settle down at the hotel.

Day 2

You will be taken by shuttle to the highest possible point and then go up a little further to then start the descent. We do this 3 to 4 times on different joints each time. In between we enjoy a delicious Spanish picnic lunch. After the last descent, we go down to the beach and have a drink or a coffee there. You will then be transferred back to the hotel.

Day 3

Again, we use help to get to the highest possible points and then enjoy challenging, varied trails on the descent. Lunch is served during the day and in the evening you will sleep well at the hotel.

Day 4

After breakfast you will be picked up at the hotel and we will then start the last route on this adventure. The day will involve about 20 km of cycling and take you about 600 meters in height. We end the day in Polop where you can enjoy a delicious BBQ for lunch. After lunch, you will be transferred to Alicante airport to start your journey home.
