This combination of adventure, culture, and natural wonder makes the Gorafe Desert e‑MTB tour a truly unforgettable experience.

    Itinerary

    What you will do You will ride an electric mountain bike through the spectacular Gorafe Desert badlands, a unique landscape in Europe often compared to the canyons of the American West. Starting from the troglodyte village of Gorafe, you will follow a circular route of 48 km with 970 m of elevation gain, adapted to a medium difficulty level for tourists. Along the way, you will: - Cycle through trails, ramblas and canyons carved by erosion. - Discover more than 240 megalithic dolmens, one of Europe’s largest necropolises. - Explore the famous Los Coloraos, where crimson clay cliffs create unforgettable views. - Learn about the history of cave dwellings still present in Gorafe. The electric bike makes climbs easier, so you can focus on enjoying the scenery and the adventure. Each season adds its own charm: wildflowers in spring, epic horizons in summer, warm tones in autumn, and magical silence in winter. This is not just a cycling route — it’s a journey through geology, history and culture, where every turn reveals both natural beauty and human heritage.
