Here comes the spot guide for Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria already has a good reputation among road cyclists, but when it comes to mountain biking, the island has always been at the bottom of the league. Wrongly so! In truth, Gran Canaria is probably the best bike island in the Atlantic and is right at the top of the global bike spot hit parade.
On a trail trip to Gran Canaria, the descent from Cruz de Tejeda to Agaete is a must. The tour with the name "Pico de la Bandera" is one of the best they have ever ridden in the eyes of the Ride editors.
Important on Gran Canaria: a very good level of fitness or the services of a shuttle company. Many tours ride from the summit region (1950 meters above sea level) down to the sea with numerous counter-climbs on the descents. It's worth relying on local cabs or one of the island's two bike shuttle companies.
