Enjoy the ride through some of the most dramatic landscapes to be found in Europe. Lanzarote offers volcanic landscapes, wine country of La Geria, and gorgeous beaches like Famara.
CHALLENGING RIDES ACROSS RAW AND RUGGED TERRAIN
Lanzarote is famous for having some of the most dramatic landscapes in Europe. Its 200 plus volcanoes, rich black earth and beautifully warm climate makes this island a real adventure playground for cyclists all year round.
The calm, laid-back island life on Lanzarote also makes it a haven for road cyclists. The quiet empty roads stretch on for kilometres, making it possible to explore much of the island’s surface area by bike. It also has a rich artistic culture, with many works by César Manrique, painter, sculptor and architect. His work, such as Los Jameos del Agua, is a must-see whilst you’re visiting Lanzarote.
This self-guided cycling tour offers a unique opportunity to see and explore Lanzarote like never before. Book now or contact us for more information.

This tour’s self-guided itinerary allows you to take each day as you please. It has been plotted by local professional guides that know the area like the back of their hand and have chosen some of their favourite routes. Your luggage will also be transported to your next location for you, meaning all you have to do is focus on pedalling!
Throughout the week you’ll be staying in beautiful 3 or 4-star hotels, all of which have en-suite rooms and breakfast included. From quaint and rural, to larger hotels with pools and extra facilities, each one has been chosen to make sure you are able to rest and relax after a day of exploring the island by bike.
Lanzarote is a haven for road cyclists. At times, the island is transformed into the surface of the moon, thanks to its wild and rugged landscape. Its volcanic landscape is like no other, and creates a breathtaking backdrop to any ride, whether looking out onto the Atlantic Ocean or over cactus-covered hills and turquoise lagoons. Lanzarote will not disappoint.
Lanzarote is often compared to the moon and it's no wonder why. It’s a magical place. The landscape is barren and rugged, covered in volcanic rocks and valleys created by torrents of lava hundreds of years ago. Unlike the other Canary Islands such as Tenerife, Lanzarote’s mountains are not as high, but even so, there is no lack of challenging climbs. The long, winding roads are smooth and never-ending, making cycling Lanzarote a real adventure. This tour is ideal for cyclists looking for something off the beaten track and a unique and wild backdrop to their adventures.
Lanzarote has a wonderfully pleasant climate with mild sunny winters and hot dry summers. It is a fantastic year-round location for cycling, especially during the off season, when you can avoid the crowds, enjoy quieter roads and cycle all day long without having to avoid the midday heat.
Lanzarote’s terrain is like no other you’ll find in Spain and has been declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. It's like cycling across the surface of the moon, dotted with craters and black rocky mountains. From the Fire Mountains to Famara Beach and the Atlantis Tunnel, Lanzarote is a veritable treasure trove of geographical and geological wonders. One of the island’s main attractions is the Timanfaya National Park spanning over 50 square kilometres, home to some of its native wildlife such as the Harí lizard.
Lazratore, like the rest of the Canary Islands and mainland Spain, has a rich culture and history. The locals traditionally embrace a joie de vivre spirit and are known for their sense of humour and generosity. The island’s gastronomy is dominated by fish and seafood, and a lot of the wine comes from local vineyards grown in the rich and fertile volcanic soil. So whilst you are on the island to cycle, don’t neglect seeing everything else it has to offer!
Today’s route:
Distance: 34 km, 45 km or 52 km
Day 2 will begin by collecting your bike and ensuring it is adjusted to fit you, before heading off to explore the island. Your route then sets out north. You’ll have the chance to pass by some of César Manrique’s wonderfully unique architecture such as El Jardín de Cactus, Los Jameos del Agua or El Mirador del Río.
You will also have time to visit La Cueva de los Verdes, an ancient tunnel formed by the La Corona volcano, which is one of the longest in the world. You will ride up the coast through traditional fishing villages with the spectacular Monte Corona volcano always on the horizon.
Your route ends in the beautiful white village of Haría sat amidst a landscape of green and black hills and surrounded by perfect palm trees.
