The Mars Atlantico Discovery - E-MTB excursion on Gran Canaria

Endless ocean views, up and down through the rocky ravines! Light lunch included.

After the check-in at the Free Motion Bike Center in Playa del Inglés, we start today’s eMTB cycling tour by riding westward, towards the outskirts of town. We cycle through the hilly areas between Maspalomas and the town of Arguineguín following the undulating terrain, and negotiating the many peaks and valleys. This cycling route is mainly on narrow dirt tracks and at times on nice singletrack with good flow. We then descend into the oceanside village of El Pajar and follow the coastline for a couple of kilometres into Arguineguín.

Here we take a short lunchbreak and replenish our energy levels. We then make our way back towards the same area that we came from, taking on a few challenging climbs and fast-paced descents en route to Maspalomas. This is the perfect eMTB route to admire the Atlantic Ocean for the vast majority of the way. We eventually arrive at Playa del Inglés and conclude the tour with some well-deserved refreshments!
