Andorra

Andorra has 21 mountain passes, which explains why the Vuelta de Espana and the Tour de France hold world-class competitions here! Arcals, Arinsal, and Cabs are just a few of the many mountain passes available to visitors, with a diverse range of cycling routes available to cyclists of all ages and levels of experience.

Cycling enthusiasts visit the Principality of Andorra from all over the world, and while our routes can be enjoyed all year, spring and summer are the most popular seasons.

The difficult mountain passes provide a good challenge for expert cyclists, and the abundant and diverse cultural heritage is a wonderful bonus that is appreciated by all.

The asphalt on Andorra’s roads and cycling routes is of the highest quality, making it ideal for cycling tourism and even supporting more specialised activities like enduro cycling on endurance road bikes.

There are numerous cycling routes in Andorra to keep you busy and wanting to return for more! You could try out one of epicos favourite routes, the Coll d’Ordino. It is an 8.9 km (5.5 mi) long moderately difficult cycling route with a 457m gradient (1,500 ft). It’s a 2nd category route, which means it’s fairly accessible to all cyclists. It begins in Canillo, at the roundabout on the Montaup road that leads to the Coll d’Ordino. At this point, there is a 6.8 percent gradient that ends at 6.1 percent; the average gradient along the entire route is 5.1 percent. It is worth noting that the end of the Port marks the beginning of the ascent to Cim de Casamanya (2,740m or nearly 9,000 ft), which is located in the heart of the Principality and is one of the most visited places in Andorra.
