The Arguineguin Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Canyon

Even if you already know the landscapes of Gran Canaria, this valley will always surprise you with its grandeur.

Recently paved, this section of bike gives us a break with its good surface and limited slope.

It climbs quite a bit through this port, so it is important to wear a raincoat for the descent.

Climb from La Filipina to Barranquillo Andrés

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Tremendous climb from La Filipina to Barranquillo Andrés with a good surface and tremendous views. The port is fun, but you will probably stop every 100 meters to take a photo and enjoy the scenery.

Cafe with a View of the Soria Dam

Highlight • Cafe

The coffee and cake in this place are very good. With the views it is a good place to recharge your batteries, which we will need to climb up to the Tauro.

If you are going to descend from here, be sure to check the brakes as they will need to be in very good condition.

Tauropass (GC-505): Barranquillo Andrés to Cuevas

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Strong ramps of up to 15% to climb. The surface is quite uneven, so it's not the best tramp to do downhill.

Ascent to Cruz Quemada

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Road with spectacular views. It is recommended to do from Mogan to Ayacata to avoid going down the bad surface.

If the weather is good, there are several places to rest and enjoy the views.

Climb to Ayacata

Highlight • Climb

This section with ramps has good views and is a very exposed area, so make sure to fill the drums before climbing.

This section used to have a pretty bad surface but it was paved not long ago so be careful.

Scenic road with mountain views

Highlight • Viewpoint

This stretch of road does not have the best surface so you have to ride with caution. Apart from this, the road, like many others on the island, has views into a valley that are to die for. With this landscape, the effort is always worth it!

Alto de Fataga

Highlight • Mountain Pass

From Alto de Fataga you can descend south through the valley or to San Bartolomé de Tirajana. If you manage to reach this height, you will be 930 meters above the sea.

This height is surrounded by a dense pine forest and is crossed by the GC-60 highway.

Morro de las Vacas Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

A beautiful viewpoint with views of the valley and the Monte de las Vacas. Nearby there is a restaurant where you can buy refreshments and food. The highway goes down to Maspalomas and goes up to San Bartolomé.

November 11, 2025,Soria, Pico de Nieves e San Bartolomé – Tour intorno al Parco Naturale di Pilancones – Gran Canaria

First trip on Gran Canaria. The road isn't exactly in good condition at the top. Breathtaking views!

Great exit from Salobre Golf - short transit on gravel road necessary - just about drivable - be careful

November 19, 2022,Picos de la Nieves

I have to admit that this was the hardest ride that I have ever done. 3+ hours of continuous climbing with some steep hairpins on a less than optimal surface. Unfortunately the group split up on the climb to the summit so Sam and I continued on together. As we neared the top the clouds came over, light mist started …

November 23, 2021,Gran Canaria #1 (BBS) : Wahnsinns RR-Insel schon wieder!!!

And it IS warmer this week, much warmer: 19 ° C (peak) to 27 ° C (ascent from the sea). Sweating - 🌞 - Enthusiasm 😍 .... A stunning beginners' round here. And the blast is the hiking trail from the bike depot to the rocks (Rocco de Nublo) that have been safely placed by aliens - as is so …

March 10, 2024,Von Maspalomas nach Fataga, Ayacata und zurueck übers Soriatal

Nice endurance round in a great landscape. The gradients are easy to navigate as they are mostly in the single-digit % range. The road from Ayacata down to Mogan is in poor condition in the upper part.

August 3, 2022,🏝Gran Canaria ist heiß 🥵🥵🥵

Actually, I wanted to climb the highest ⛰der 🏝. So I started this morning at 8am. However, the climate in the middle of the island is much more extreme. Everywhere 🔆🔆🔆 and extremely hot 🌬🌬🌬.
I completely underestimated that and then cut the last 15 km to the summit.
Otherwise this is a dream for biking with the mountains and …

February 28, 2025,🇪🇸🚴🏼‍♂️Ayacata Runde

Komoot was acting up again... and could hardly be activated in Ayacata and the tour was given as 2000 meters of elevation.
Very green - very lonely - spectacular!
Why have I been to Tenerife almost all the time in recent years? OK, Teide is a highlight - but there is a lot more traffic and hustle and bustle on …

March 10, 2022,Maspalomas- Tauropass- Ayacata- San Bartolomé

A great round! The wind was definitely better going clockwise. Unfortunately, quite large sections have underground road surfaces. A patchwork of different layers of asphalt with holes and split await you. And then again divine black asphalt in between. The lower part of the descent compensates for the shaking.
In Ayacata it seems that all cyclists drink a coffee on …
