We are based in Lanjarón, which is famous for its stunning scenery, outdoor sports and natural springs. There’s also regular events that you could join in with. If you are not into cycling – don’t worry – we have a whole range of other activities that we can help organise for you. You can also just chill by the pool at the villa.
Massage & YOGA
If you fancy limbering up with some yoga or if you need a good rub down, we have the specialist for you. Ana is a pro at working with cyclists. You can book before you come over or while you’re here and we can arrange for whatever you need.
Increasingly popular, e–biking is a great way to mix the traditional and modern. We can arrange to hire ebikes locally or bring your own, we can show you the best routes depending on your ability. However, we would suggest some experience is best to get the most out of it.
We also offer mountain biking packages. This means if you would like to try a different style of riding or are coming in a mixed group, we can make sure you get to ride the sickest trails. Experience is essential though as it’s not a terrain suitable for newbies.
