Epic Road Rides’ guide to cycling northern Spain: How to plan a cycling holiday in northern Spain
Why should cyclists visit northern Spain?
The north of Spain is also known as Green Spain. Unlike much of Spain that is home to arid plains and peaks, northern Spain is full of dense forests, lush meadows and rugged mountains.
Fun fact
Northern Spain is particularly famous for being home to the Camino de Santiago. These are the ancient pilgrimage routes of Spain, and they are now becoming some of the most famous cycling routes in the country.
When to cycle?
July and August are, unlike other areas of Spain, a great time to visit, as the average temperatures are 23ºC, with just a few hot days now and then.
Any tips?
Helmets are mandatory in Spain outside city centres.
A front and rear light for your bike is the best way for cars to know you are also on the road.
