Cycling Routes

The comarca boasts forty eight cycling trails accredited by the Federation of Mountain Sports, Climbing, and Hiking of Castile and León, and the Burgos Province Cycle Tourism Plan for 2025 to 2027 identifies it as one of the strategic axes of cycling tourism development across the region. Stated plainly: those who arrive by bicycle in the Ribera del Duero find themselves in a territory that is making an active and considered commitment to exactly this kind of traveller.

From Peñaranda de Duero, gateway to the southeastern corner of Burgos and home to the Castilla Termal Palacio de Avellaneda, one may set out upon a variety of itineraries that span the full range of ambition, from a gentle two hour family ride to a multi day long distance route unfolding across successive stages. What follows is a guide to the principal options, organised by profile and level of difficulty.
