We can't seem to run out of reasons for Spain, especially for 2027. ๐Ÿคฏ

You land expecting flat coastal roads and olive groves.
Then Granada happens. ๐Ÿ”๏ธ
The highest paved road on the continent climbs to 3,398 m, and there's still snow at the top in May. ๐Ÿฅถ

But that's not really the main reason why we keep recommending it.
It's that you can ride Andalusia in February, the Canaries in December, and Girona whenever you feel like it. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Same roads the Vuelta pros train on, but no one to judge how fast you're going. โœจ
So take them at your own pace. ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ

What would you like to experience there next year?

Almerรญa to Seville ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ
Missed the eclipse this week? ๐ŸŒ‘

You'll want to save this route for 2nd of August 2027, because Spain has another, even better one scheduled. ๐Ÿ˜Œ And what better way to witness it than mid-ride?
Ronda and Arcos de la Frontera, two of the overnight stops on this route, sit right inside the path of totality. ๐Ÿคฉ

It's not a beginner's ride, but it also overlaps with some of the La Vuelta's routes, which is a badge of honor on its own.

๐Ÿ“ The route

๐Ÿ”๏ธ Andalusia
Start: Almerรญa / Finish: Seville

๐Ÿ“… 8 days / 7 nights
๐Ÿ“ 662 km | 411 miles
โ›ฐ๏ธ 9,678 m climbing
๐Ÿšด Best time: March to November
๐Ÿ”ฅ Difficulty: 5/5

You start along the bay to Aguadulce. The next morning turns inland and follows the Andarax upstream โ€” citrus, olive terraces, vineyards, the sierra closing in on both sides.

Then over the Sierra Nevada into Granada, and from there up into the Antequera hills, where El Torcal's limestone stacks on the skyline. The Serranรญa after that, and a hard, beautiful ride through the Grazalema sierras to Arcos de la Frontera, visible long before you get there.

The finishing km are the crown jewel. Down out of the hills onto the Guadalquivir plain and into Seville through wheat and sunflower.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips
๐Ÿ”ธ Expect a genuinely 5/5 difficulty: serious climbing, back to back.
๐Ÿ”ธ Andalusia rides best October to April. The 2027 eclipse falls on 2 August, when inland temperatures can pass 40ยฐC, which means early starts
๐Ÿ”ธ An e-road bike takes the edge off the Sierra Nevada day

The difference between a great trip and a stressful one almost never comes down to fitness or experience, but to a few small things the family did โ€” or didn't โ€” sort out before leaving. ๐Ÿ”Ž๐Ÿšธ

Planing a family holiday? Here are 6 tips to help you out ๐Ÿ‘‡

1. ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ธ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—น ๐Ÿ’ก
Kids who have a "job" on the tour โ€” following the GPS route, calling the turns โ€” enjoy the inclusion, learn new skills and focus on the route more easily. A cheap camera with the instruction to document the day does the same thing.

2. ๐—š๐—ผ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐—น๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜ ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐Ÿฆ
Preview the next day's stops with kids after dinner; be it a swimming lake, a castle, or an ice cream stop. It builds anticipation overnight and gives children something to ride toward during the day.

3. ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐˜ ๐Ÿž๏ธ
Danube, Loire, Dutch coast,... For a start, pick flat, forgiving routes with a comfortable coffee or ice cream stop every few hours. The gradient should be gentle and the infrastructure (cafรฉs, rest stops, bike shops) good.

4. ๐—ž๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐˜†๐˜€ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ (๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฑ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฌ ๐—ธ๐—บ) ๐Ÿšฒ
Some of the best family days seem almost too short on paper. But that also doesn't mean the same distance every day: 17 km day followed by a 48 km one keeps the week unpredictable and fun.

5. ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐˜-๐˜๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐Ÿงธ
After one enjoyable tour, children may be more inclined towards longer-term cycling habits. The first trip is a step in either direction, but the task is not as daunting as it seems. A well-versed agent can help choose and tailor the right one for you.

6. ๐—ฉ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ? ๐—•๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ธ ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—น๐˜† ๐—๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ฆ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐Ÿ–๏ธ
Pick the months before European school holidays begin, or right after they end. The paths are less crowded, the weather is cooler and the prices drop.

Norway is one of the most coveted, yet somehow still uncrowded cycling destinations. Most people keep putting it off as it's "too far, too expensive, too ambitious".

We recommend visiting soon, before everyone realizes their mistake.

Reasons to see it on a bike are near endless, we just picked our favorite ones.
Yours might be different โ€” tell us which one calls to you the most ๐Ÿ‘‡

Five ways to wreck a cycling trip - and they are all easy fixes! ๐Ÿ”ง

That fifth one doesn't show up in a day. It shows up on day three, when you skip the village with the good coffee because you're "making time."
Making time for what, exactly? You're on holiday. ๐Ÿซ โค๏ธ

Which one are you guilty of? ๐Ÿ‘‡

(Perhaps the last) views of the lavender fields for the season.
The bakeries lined up along the route.
And the hill that you reminisce about while reading the wine list.

When Tour crowd dissipate, the trails are yours and the charm is even greater.

Which region tempts you the most? ๐Ÿ˜

Not a training camp, or a race โ€” but 8 days cycling past incredible sights in the country that basically invented commuting by bike. ๐Ÿšด

Some effort will be needed to battle the winds, but there will always be time for a proper lunch, castles you didn't have to earn, and coffee stops in towns you can't pronounce. โ˜•

We handle the hotels, the bags, and the route. Are you in?
