The Cid route - self-guided version
We provide you with the itinerary with all the accommodation reserved, and we also make sure that your luggage will be transferred each day to the next hotel. All that's left for you is to pedal and enjoy!
The paths of the famous Song of Mine Cid from Burgos to Valencia serve as a proposal for an itinerant route through the most beautiful areas of the Iberian System and the Castilian Plateau.
Evening time 9 nights (8 bike stages) It is an authentic immersion in Empty Spain. You will faithfully follow in the footsteps of El Cid through the lands of Burgos, Soria, Guadalajara, Teruel, Castellón and Valencia as if it were a true natural and cultural exhibition. You will end up next to the Levantine coast, on the same Malvarrosa beach to enjoy a swim and a delicious paella.
ITINERARY
The route will take you through natural spaces such as the Sierra de la Demanda, El Cañón del Río Lobos, Sierra de Pela, the moors of Molina, El Alto Tajo and the Sierras de Albarracín, the heart of Montañas Vacías, Javalambre, the Sierras de Espadán.
We have designed an itinerary for you along very little traveled paths: old medieval roads, bridges, Roman roads, nomadic ravines, abandoned train tracks (today converted into Greenways) or long-distance trails.
