  Your Spain MTB holiday takes place in Spanish Sierra Nevadas—a singletrack mecca for MTB enthusiasts! However, this does not mean that only the advanced mountain bikers can join this trip. If you’re at an intermediate level, you’re good to go!

  You should be able to corner and use your brakes instinctively. It’s helpful to have some confidence on rocky terrain, but big jumps or drops are out of the picture. Expect to be challenged on some sections, but remember, this is about enjoying your Spain MTB holiday, not pushing limits in a training camp.

  In terms of fitness, being in good shape is advisable and adds to the fun, though you don’t need to be a pro/elite rider. With some hefty climbs and daily rides lasting 5-7 hours, stamina is key. While there is a support vehicle on hand, please bear in mind that it should be used only when absolutely necessary, encouraging riders to embrace the full biking experience.

  All riding is completely optional and if you want, you are welcome to take a day off the bike and rest. The villa where you’ll be staying offers a refreshing pool where guests often relax and recharge. Also, Granada and Motril are just down the road for those seeking alternative activities.
