Moorish Andalucía

If you love cycle touring, the charting off new places, discovering ancient ones and revelling in a countryside well trodden though the centuries, then this Andalucian Self-guided bike tour is for you. A nature lover’s paradise as well as the traveller on 2 wheels. Seville, Córdoba and Granada are all explored.

Our home is Andalucía and our self guided bike trip lets you ride across the best and most famous landscape of Southern Spain. From your start in Carmona (just outside busier Seville) you can cycle all the way to Granada!

With an option to begin in Cordoba for those with less time, this is a route that encapsulates what we believe is the true heart of the South of Spain. You even pass through our home town, so we know the route pretty well! Think, Castanets, Caliphates, Carmen and Castles, that is what this colourful vivacious land shouts.

To explore this area in which the Romans trod, the Moorish society developed, and Spain takes particular pride in, is too much fun to pass up.

Highlights

• Enjoy atmospheric Carmona with her Roman amphitheatre
• The elegant UNESCO site, the Mezquita in Córdoba
• Rest in the same place where Columbus slept
• Stay in charming villages and experience the real Andalucia
• Vistas and Visions of loveliness and legends

Distances are kept lower (daily average of 60 km) but terrain can be challenging. Expect longer hills and hot days in the summer. This is suitable for more experienced cyclists as the route can be quite isolated in parts as you traverse this beautiful landscape. Some will find this route Challenging if heat / climbs are issues. A real fantastic accomplishment for those who enjoy cycling a historic but large landscape. Good surfaced roads on quiet country roads (busier as you near Cordoba and Granada). Suitable for touring-hybrid bikes and road bikes.
