Cycle route in Fuerteventura

Cycle from Puerto de Rosario to the south of the island

A cycle route from the east to the south of Fuerteventura, with a favourable wind is only suited to very fit cyclists. From Puerto de Rosario, the capital of the island, set off northwards following the coast and cross the spectacular dunes of Corralejo where the first 30 kilometres end. It’s time to change direction and start an easy climb towards the interior, a tour though the towns of Villaverde and La Oliva leaving Tindaya Mountain to the east taking cyclists though a flat landscape dotted with mountains..

Cycle 150 kilometres to Morro Jable

The flat lands give way to the valleys in the interior, with its more demanding rough terrain, which changes in Vega del Río Palma where lush palm groves are left behind on the way to Pájara. With 90 kilometres behind you, it’s a good idea to eat before going on to Cardón Mountain. On the way to the surfing town of La Pared is a cycle through a stunning landscape which takes you to the end of the route, Morro Jable in the Jandía peninsula with its wonderful beaches. It is the finish line of this almost 150 kilometre long route.
