Guided Road Bike Tours

For those who want to discover the City of Malaga on bike, our partners from Bike Tours Malaga have designed interesting guided bike tours. We want to introduce you to two of their best sellers. To see more bike tours, check their homepage.

 

Greenways (Vias Verdes in Spanish) are unused railway tracks which have now become hiking and cycling tracks. There are more than 6000 kms of abandoned railway lines across Spain and two of the most beautiful Vias Verdes you can find are not far from Malaga. We at bike2malaga invite you to discover the remote and original corners of Andalusia – an extraordinary cycling experience that will last a lifetime in your memory!

You choose the route! We bring you among the bicycles to the starting point of the route and prepare you for your cycle. Once finished, we will be waiting at the end point of the route to pick you up with your bike and return to Malaga. The routes are well indicated, so we encourage you to do the route on your own, without a guide, but we also have the option to ride the route with a guide to accompany you during the tour.

Vias Verdes are the perfect options to explore untouched Andalusia in a one day cycling trip for individuals, families and small groups!

Top 10 mountain passes you 'should not miss' when cycling in Malaga Region

Road bike routes in and around Malaga: Top 10 passes for road cyclists

 

It was not easy to choose 'the best', 'the most beautiful', or 'the hardest' mountain passes around to have them shown to all mad cyclists coming to punish themselves here in the south of Spain, in Andalusia. Finally we have decided to include some nice sections from Malaga Province, and only those that I like very much.

The other passes, for example, Puerto del Sol, La Mina or Muro de Comares, can be found on the web or ask local riders. These passes are not worse or less impressive, we just have too many of them to choose from!

bike2malaga – your cycling adventure specialist in Malaga since 2007

It was the year 2007 when the idea to establish the first bike rental in Malaga dedicated to cyclists around the world was born. Back then, you could hardly find 10 locals on bikes in Malaga city, and literally, all the cyclists knew each other. It's incredible to see how much has happened since then and Malaga has become a cycling hot spot in high demand. bike2malaga is proud to have played an important role in this great development. Although we constantly grow our number of bikes and the types that we offer, by our number of bike tours we organize and also by our geographical spread of cycling trips across Europe, we still consider ourselves as a 0 kilometer enterprise. Malaga is still our home base! We live here, we cycle here and even though we know the region well, we are still discovering the beauty of this place and its people.

We are lucky to be a part of this wonderful world of cycling. Here in Malaga, it is a mix of our local knowledge and enterprising spirit of excited cyclists from all over the world. This is also why bike2malaga has become a special spot for cycling adventurers and road bikers as well as downhill and cross country lovers around the globe!
