If you love nothing more than getting out on your bike, there’s nowhere better than the Region of Valencia. Discover the best cycling destinations across the area and complement your rides with unforgettable experiences and delicious cuisine.

Cycling – whether it be mountain biking, bicycle touring or road cycling – has grown in popularity in recent years. And it’s not hard to see why. Cycling gets you out in the fresh air and discovering new destinations and landscapes. The Region of Valencia’s topography caters to all tastes and levels. There are vast plains, sheer mountains, vía verdes and everything in-between. And to help you enjoy the sport even more, there are plenty of mountain biking centres. In this post, we’re going to let you in on some of the best cycling destinations in the region.

Cycling in the province of Castellón

The province of Castellón has many cycling trails that mountain biking centres such as Los Serranos, Alto Mijares and Els Ports maintain, categorise and map. Whether you’re a road cyclist or a mountain biker, there’s something for you. The routes will take you through the most breath-taking natural landscapes as well as along the coastline. The Benicasim and Oropesa del Mar vía verde is an excellent example of this. The trail flanks the sparkling blue seas giving you a sense of total peace and tranquillity.

If you’re more of an inland kind of cyclist, you’re sure to love the province of Castellón’s Medieval hilltop villages where time has stood still. While you’re here, you simply have to try the local delicacies such as artisanal cheeses and designation of origin produce.

Cycling in the province of Valencia

As you would expect, the province of Valencia also boasts beautiful routes for cycling, bicycle touring and mountain biking. In the area there is a tradition of getting up early for a cycle and then sitting down for a hearty almuerzo, which is similar to a brunch. There are mountain biking centres in the province too, including La Canal de Navarrés and El Valle, which guarantee the safety of the routes.

The huerta overlooking the sea and trails such as Ojos Negros (which continues into the province of Castellón) make Valencia the perfect place to get out on your bike. Discover everything the Region of Valencia has to offer while you enjoy your favourite sport.

Cycling in the province of Alicante

The cycling routes in the province of Alicante will take you through spectacular mountainscapes where you can feel the sea breeze on your skin. Mountain biking centres, such as those in Vall de Pop and El Comtat, will take you on an exploration of ineffable scenery. Cycling in the province is as diverse as it gets, ranging from vibrant towns and cities to imposing mountains, picturesque villages and beaches lapped by crystalline waters. And once you’ve worked up an appetite, you can sit down to enjoy the most delicious gastronomy.

Slow Cycling, Salto de la Novia in two days and one night

A bike tour of two days and one night to enjoy the wonderful landscapes of Navajas surrounded by nature.
This tour of 50 km and low difficulty takes us deep into one of the most beautiful places in the interior of the Region of Valencia: el Salto de la Novia (the Leaping of the Bride) in Navajas. The legend says that, as a proof of love and omen of good marriage and fertility, the bride had to jump to the opposite bank in front of the gaze of those present. If she succeeded, it promised great happiness to the couple. If she didn't succeed, the marriage would be broken because it was considered unfulfilled or unfortunate. Enjoy it whether you take part as a couple, family, with friends or on your own!
