Fataga Village

Highlight • Settlement

Beautiful town that looks like an oasis in the middle of the ravine. There are several bars in the town where you can take a break.

Morro de las Vacas 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.

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.

Church of San Bartolomé de Tirajana

Highlight • Religious Site

On the way to the Pico de las Nieves is here in San Bartholomä at about 1000 meters altitude in about half time. How about a little break in this rather original piece of Gran Canaria? The Iglesia de Sant Bartolome and its church forecourt invite you to take a break.

On the way downhill you almost fall into a curve rush...really a great section of asphalt

View of the Guriete Canyon from the GC-65 Road

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

This stretch of road that goes down from Santa Lucía de Tirajana to Guriete is a spectacle both for the asphalt and the curves and for the impressive views of the imposing Guriente Canyon.

Be careful when descending as the road is not very wide and there is not much space left when meeting cars.

View of the road to Santa Lucía

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Top asphalt and wonderful ups and downs through the breathtaking landscape of Gran Canaria. Recommendation: Definitely integrate into a tour to Agüimes and Santa Lucia.

Wow, the last ride already! These four weeks have flown by. Originally, I wanted to do 110km as my last ride with 2,200m of altitude gain, but the 3-4 days of sandstorms threw a wrench in the works halfway through. But that's okay. I cycled my planned 500km and achieved my desired 10,000m of elevation gain. So the penultimate ride …

One valley more beautiful than the other!
One climb steeper than the next!
One serpentine is more beautiful than the next!
One caffe con leche is tastier than the next!

The cul-de-sac up to Guayadec is simply "a dog": Starts leisurely and gets steeper and steeper with every kilometer. Still nice. A very own subclimate on Gran Canaria.

Move the first piece first🤦
Very nice 'settling in' tour to warm up. 🥳

Great descent through St. Lucia; depending on your form, it can be quite a torture to get to San Bartholomé

Showing Translation

Challenging but very fun racing bike climbing route from the south coast of Gran Canaria to Santa Lucia. Fill your water bottles on time, because it is always warm here and the sun's rays are very powerful. And the places where you can tap water are scarce, so stop on time. Very nice and smooth asphalt. Unfortunately, there are no …
