Gravel Snake

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful gravel path that winds like a snake over the back of the rocks near Benalua. There are also real snakes in this area, but the danger is not in these slithering friends. Pay particular attention to the holes and ruts in the road, which can land you badly if you are not careful. In addition to the wonderful driving, you also get a series of beautiful views as a gift.

Old riverbed with dry gravel

Highlight (Segment) • River

Where water once flowed, you will now usually find a gravel path, although it can of course still fill up with water after a unique and heavy rain shower. Like any riverbed, it rides a bit heavier than other trails, but is generally fine to cycle with 45mm tires or wider.

Cave town Guadix

Highlight • Settlement

Guadix is the perfect place where you can stop for an overnight stay and shopping during your multi-day cycling adventures. In addition to several restaurants, cafes and supermarkets, it is a very beautiful town. The town (and the wider region) is especially famous for its cave houses, a tradition that dates back thousands of years. You can sleep in several cave houses in Guadix and even if you are passing through, it is worth visiting the higher neighborhoods on the south side of the village for this unique spectacle.
