Playa de Taurito - Road bike excursion on Gran Canaria

Coastal fitness ride with rolling climbs and sweeping Atlantic views

This guided road tour is for riders who enjoy rolling terrain and moderate climbs.
It offers the full coastal experience: gentle but engaging climbs, smooth “rollercoaster” descents, and morning sunlight sparkling over the Atlantic.

Tour route:
We set off from our shop in Playa del Inglés and follow the GC500 westward. The road features flowing descents and short, steady climbs. The right way to wake up the legs, with these built-in, easy intervals. Along the way, we pass through Gran Canaria’s popular resorts and charming coastal towns.

Taurito is the furthest point we can get on the GC500, before the fabled road closure that isolates Puerto de Mogan. Our coffee stop in Taurito is on the beachfront, so we can refuel, have a coffee, and enjoy ocean views. All energised, we start our ride back on the same route that brought us here.

Highlights:

• Rolling coastal ride with lively climbs and flowing descents
• Stunning Atlantic views throughout the ride
• Coffee break at Taurito’s beachfront café
• Route through Gran Canaria’s most iconic coastal resorts
