Cycling is usually enjoyed out of high season when the temperatures are a little kinder for long rides. Which means accommodation rental prices are often cheaper so it’s the perfect time to make the most of this quieter time of year.

The cycling in Spain is undoubtedly some of the best in the world and while the summer often requires early morning rides to avoid the midday heat, the rest of the year offers perfect temperatures for road cycling and mountain biking

There’s everything from supremely smooth asphalt on the roads, perfect gravel, and hardcore downhill MTB descents.

For off road there are some very challenging downhill routes in Benalmadena and neighbouring Mijas where specialist companies will transport you to the top and then support your descent. There's also plenty of gravel and enduro style routes to be found.
