Day 16: Toledo to Tembleque
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
A lazy wander through Don Quijote country, this is a great, flat ride that's also great as a day away from Madrid (when the weather's not too hot). For those of you who ride mountain bikes and want a day that's a little longer, it is possible to expand the day to almost 90km from its original 65.
Day 15: Aranjuez to Toledo
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
We're not going to lie: As far as scenic bike rides go, this probably isn't one of the loveliest that you'll ever do. But it is the most straightforward way of cycling from Aranjuez to Toledo, and if you're lucky enough to do it on a warm day in spring, when the crops are coming out, you can even...
Day 14: Morata de Tajuña to Aranjuez
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
One of the easiest and prettiest days of the Trans-Iberian, this can be done as a day trip from Madrid.
Day 13: Brihuega to Morata de Tajuña
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
And it's into Madrid we go! This day may seem long, but don't worry - it's a gentle downhill all the way, making it a great option for a weekend away from the capital.
Day 12: Sigüenza to Brihuega (PROVISIONAL)
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
The provisional cue sheet that takes you from Sigüenza to Brihuega. I hope to have a new version up by the fall, and aside from the truck traffic, this route isn't bad. But we'll have on up soon.
Day 11: Retortillo de Soria to Sigüenza
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
Here's one for the foodies, and for people looking for scenery without too much climbing. This enjoyable day starts with a bit of an uphill, followed by a brake-burning descent and passes by some of Guadalajara's cutest towns, many with great restaurants. / Looking for a great weekend away that...
Day 10: Burgo de Osma to Retortillo de Soria
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
Ah, Soria! Wide-open skies, quaint red-stone hamlets with historic churches - you can't get more "away from it all" than here.
Day 9: Salas de los Infantes to Burgo de Osma
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
A gentle gem that takes you through two nature reserves and a dozen quiet, historic towns - seventy kilometres of communing with Castile's great green spaces.
Day 7: Haro to Atapuerca, 79 km
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
Don't let the length of today's route put you off: this is an enjoyable way to discover the rolling hills of Burgos province while experiencing the Camino de Santiago vibe. This day can be split in two for those who want to take it a little more easy, or visit the Atapuerca archaeological site.
Día 2: Andoain a Lekunberri
from Trans-iberian in How-to-Guides & Manuals
Atravesando Gipúzcoa y Navarra por su corazón, la Vía Verde del Plazaola es una joya de turismo verde. ¡Un día (o finde, si vas de ida y vuelta) inolvidable!
Day 6: Logroño to Haro
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
Wine country, here we come! Who says that all the great routes combining wine and bikes are in France or Italy? Using the old Roman road that links Logroño with Fuenmayor, and then hitting the GR99 hiking trail to take you into Haro. Just remember - if you drink, don't ride.
Day 5: Estella to Logroño
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
A pleasant alternative to the constant up-and-downs on the N111A, this route brings you through the pretty rolling wine fields of western Navarra and through the Ebro Valley.
Day 8: Atapuerca to Salas de los Infantes
from Trans-iberian in Illustrations & Maps
Today, the route moves south and heads further inland, taking riders into the little-visited, but very beautiful, Sierra de la Demanda. No traffic stress here, just gorgeous mountain scenery, best enjoyed from the path established by the former mining train that brought coal out of the sierra.
