ROAD CYCLING TIPS IN LANZAROTE

  • The climate is ideal for cycling year-round, with winter temperatures ranging from a minimum of 12°C to a maximum of 20°C, and summer temperatures varying between 20°C and 28°C.
  • Don't use wheels with a high profile (no higher 50 mm) to ensure greater stability, especially in strong wind conditions.
  • Carry red lights both in the rear and front if you go cycling very early or before sunset.
  • Use sunscreen with SPF 50, as UV levels are high.
  • Wear sunglasses: not only to prevent sun glare but also for better wind protection.
  • It's advisable to always carry two water bottles, as urban areas where supermarkets or places to buy water are not as frequent.
  • Cars traveling on the roads generally respect cyclists and must always maintain a distance of 2 meters when overtaking. There are also multiple routes with priority for cyclists.
  • If you're staying at Club La Santa, you have the option to rent bicycles and avoid travelling with one. They also offer different outings (CYCLING TOURS) every day of the week. If you're staying in different parts of the island, there's a wide variety of bicycle rental options.
  • One of the most popular routes is the IRONMAN LANZAROTE route, covering 180 kilometres and practically circling the entire island.
  • The northern part of the island is characterized by its mountainous terrain and includes some mountain passes like Tabayesco, Mirador del Río, Los Valles.
  • The central part of the island stands out for its vineyards, wineries, and some flat areas like La Geria, Tinguatón, Tinajo.
  • The southern part of the island is a beautiful region where you can climb through the Timanfaya National Park.
