Is it for me?

You’ll have a go on moderate technical features, such as small rock gardens, small drops and steeper sections, but may get off and walk certain technical features, You are comfortable mountain biking up to five/six hours a day at a moderate pace.

Itinerary

Day one begins with a delicious, healthy breakfast designed to keep you feeling fuelled until lunch-time before we launch directly into our first e-mountain bike ride. We believe that the best way to get you started on your bike experience is to bring you directly into our world, taking you to the places where we enjoy riding and training every day! This loop runs trough the best volcanoes of the NNW part of the island, with a series of uphill and downhill sections on different kinds of ground and taking in a series of stunning landscapes. We’ll encounter a few technically tricky sections mixed with smoother flowing ones, and we’ll give you all the advice and tips you need to ensure your safety and maximum enjoyment. You’re going to love it!

A restaurant in Lajares is our lunch venue and provides a truly authentic canarian experience, offering simple yet delicious Canarian favourites including a rich and tasty goat stew, a classic canarian salad of perfectly ripe tomatoes and local goats’ cheese, or grilled, charred octopus for the sea-food lovers. The ambience at Los Pinchitos, like the food, is simple yet welcoming, authentic and comforting. Every dish is packed full of flavour and made with natural ingredients and a lot of love, setting you up perfectly for an afternoon of relaxation and mindfulness as we again concentrate on our mental and emotional well-being.

In the evening, a mouth-watering yet healthy, balanced and satisfying meal will be served at your accommodation following the day’s activities to leave you fuelled and ready for another awesome adventure on day two.

Brunch will be served at the family-run place located right next to the picturesque beaches of the Los Lagos (meaning lakes or lagoons) area of El Cotillo, providing a relaxed and informal spot just a few paces from the sand.  Why not enjoy a glass of their amazing fresh-pressed juice or a home-made smoothie alongside a delicious, fresh salad, bocadillo, hamburger or wrap?  The menu at the restaurant is prepared with passion, packed with locally sourced ingredients and is designed to delight the senses, nourish the body, and to satisfy even the heartiest appetite.

We will shuttle to Vallebrón to start the tour. In the first part we’ll mix climbs and descents across the mountains and small villages of this part of Fuerteventura, enjoying great views both to the east and west of the island. After the most thrilling downhill of the day we cross the island trailing a ravine till the west coast and we finish the tour with a ride along a particularly scenic section of the coastal path taking in the spectacular sunset on our way to our final destination, El Cotillo.

Whilst you wash away the dust our Chef will begin to prepare a wonderful paella; the perfect complement to the days action-packed pursuits.

Breakfast will be served at your accommodation and lead into a massage session to work out any  muscular aches or stresses to allow you to enjoy some time in the ocean.

After having lunch in Corralejo, will will take a boat to an incredible spot. Just two kilometres off the Corralejo coast is the incredible island of Lobos which means Wolves, but was actually named for the ‘sea-wolves’ (monk-seals) which once greeted Spanish conquerors.  Today, Lobos is a beautiful, unpopulated nature-reserve, home to over 130 different plant species and designated a protected area for bird-life, so we must journey to the island by boat.   We’ll disembark to explore the abundant coastal sea-life using snorkels and masks, then swim, SUP or play in the crystal clear waters, or clamber ashore to explore the islands interior and walking trails where recent evidence of Roman occupation has been discovered.

We’ll take dinner in a Villaverde’s  restaurant which is decorated to resemble a traditional canarian home and houses a traditional canarian oven and barbeque grill from which are served some of the most succulent, tender and often belt-busting portions of meat you’ll ever eat.  The service is informal and friendly to reflect the décor, and the freshly prepared dishes range from seafood and salads to all manner of grilled or roasted chops, shanks and steaks.

Ok, so we don’t have the high mountains of the Alps, Canada etc. but we do have a totally unique landscape and here in the heart of the island you’re going to enjoy it at it’s best. After another hearty and delicious breakfast we shuttle to Betancuria to start a tour characterised by technical and sometimes steep climbs, fun and varied downhills, ridge riding, and a single trail ride inside the only Canarian pine forest of Fuerteventura. Bringing the tour to a close riding in one of the most impressive valleys of the island before heading back out towards the ocean again.

We will have dinner in a local Restaurant close to the beach in one of the most beautiful bay of the west coast.

We start day four at local Bakery in Lajares where you can expect a massive treat for the senses as you enter the unassuming entrance under the large, hand-made wooden sign.  The amazing variety of breads, cakes and pastries create a riot of colors and aromas, delighting the eye and bathing you in scents.

After enjoying some free time we’ll visit the beautiful fishing village of Cotillo where we’ll sample an incredible, authentic paella, steeped in the traditions of the cooking  at the amazing, family owned restaurant. This place offers the perfect combination of stunning views of the old fishing harbour alongside amazing seafood dishes made from the freshest, local ingredients providing a real treat for the taste-buds.

Our night-time cycling Fuerteventura journey starts in the pretty town of Lajares at around dusk, as we seize the last remaining daylight to reach an exquisite spot, from where we’ll enjoy an incredible, Canarian sunset. From there we turn on the lights and traverse coastal paths until we arrive at a magnificent and mountainous region, the true beauty of which is rendered almost magical by the cover of night.

We’ll enjoy the natural grandeur of Fuerteventura, soaking up the silence and the absence of light-pollution. Finally we’ll descend, back toward Lajares where we will round off our adventure with a well-earned snack, whilst sharing the stories and adventures of the expedition.

Our evening meal will served in a very special place often overlooked by tourists and is a strange but inspiring combination of both restaurant and art gallery.   The ambience is arty and elegant yet friendly, the food a delightful combination of local, Canarian ingredients and superb Italian cooking, and the artworks provide a backdrop that elevates the  experience head and shoulders above most of the competition.

We hope you return home refreshed, invigorated and with new skills, hobbies and friends to carry with you throughout life, and we are super-proud and pleased to be able to share our passion for Fuerteventura, its nature and laid-back lifestyle with you.  We hope you love our amazing little island as much as we do and come back and see us all very soon.

Thanks for the memories and buen viaje.
