Things To Know Before You Go

There are a couple of things you should keep in mind of before heading on a cycling adventure in Tenerife:

  • Train Beforehand: The island’s demanding routes are best suited for cyclists with a solid fitness base. Incorporate climbs into your training regimen.
  • Acclimate to Altitude: Mount Teide’s high altitude can impact performance. Start with lower elevation routes to adjust gradually.
  • Hydration and Recovery: Stay hydrated and prioritize recovery with proper nutrition, rest, and stretching.
  • Sudden Weather Changes: Particularly in areas like Mount Teide and Anaga Rural Park, the weather can shift quickly. Bring layers and be prepared for rain or cooler conditions at higher altitudes.
  • Narrow Roads: Some routes, especially in mountainous regions, are narrow and shared with vehicles, requiring caution and respect for other road users.

A Winter Cycling Paradise

Tenerife, with its warm climate, is an ideal destination for cycling tours. The island boasts mild winters and hot summers, making it ideal for a winter training camp. During the winter cycling season, from late winter to early spring, you can expect pleasant temperatures ranging from 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F). In the peak summer months, temperatures in the lowlands may reach even hotter, ranging from 30°C to 40°C (86°F to 104°F).

This comfortable weather sets the stage for enjoyable rides, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the island’s natural beauty. And no cycling journey in Tenerife would be complete without savoring the tantalizing local cuisine. From traditional tapas dishes bursting with flavors to delectable fresh seafood, Tenerife’s culinary scene is rich in both taste and history.

Along your cycling adventure, you’ll have the opportunity to indulge in national specialties.

This tour met and exceeded our expectations. It was certainly challenging cycling for seniors but most of us did it all seven days. Scenery and culture of the islands was glorious. Guide and crew was superb!

We had a wonderful tour of Greece on bikes. All of the hotels and towns were unique and wonderful, the rides were a reasonable length for my wife and we had a great time on our own without guides. Thank you very much and I would do the exact trip again.

Our one week tour of Slovenia with these 3 young local guides surpassed all expectations! We travelled from Bled through the Sovenian Alps all the way to to coastal seaside Piran, through villages , on backroads ….it felt like riding through a story book….a delightful surprise around every turn . Our guides took care of our every need: charming accommodations, snacks every day at fantastic off beat locations, mid-ride. We covered 250 km over 5 riding days. The one day we were rained out, they quickly pivoted, and we were able to visit a wonderful historical national museum, which informed us so much in terms of the history in the Soča valley…So the day became not a write off but an educational experience! It was quite special to know the history of the Soča valley as we journeyed through the region, seeing the incredible geographical diversity of this beautiful country on excellent quality e-bikes. Highly recommend! Trip of a lifetime ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First class company with a well planned route, great accommodation and simply outstanding support in time of trouble. We did a two week ride from Bled to Pula in September 2023. Fair to say we hit a lot of problems courtesy of BA with rescheduled and diverted flights, lost bags, problems with our own bikes, returning rental bikes and more. Daja was simply amazing in helping us sort all of them out and was so accessible at all hours. She even managed to source and buy a forgotten Thru-axle and deliver it personally to our hotel, which is far and above any service i would reasonably expect. Thank you !! Our accommodation was fantastic and far better than expected in all but one location. The route planning in Slovenia was great but due to our decision to bring road bikes from the UK and the nature of the roads in Croatia, our second week was a bit tricky route wise and it would have been good to have had a discussion about this section beforehand. A Gravel bike is far better suited to Croatia although this was our decision to bring road bikes. Transport arrangement and logistics were flawless. Overall, i would change very little and we will definitely be returning to Slovenia. Daja was fantastic and I absolutely recommend Slovenia Cycling Holidays and will be using their services again.

We had a wonderful cycling trip, starting in Trieste, then onto Slovenia and Croatia. Before the trip, Klemen was extremely patient with our many questions and addressed our concerns very satisfactorily- even changing the original bike route to meet our needs. The bikes we used ( e-bikes) were in great condition, and easy to use. The hotels were very satisfactory- and included big breakfasts to start our days. The towns we visited were charming. All in all- a first class experience!!
