Ride through the wild heights of Sierra Nevada on an electric mountain bike tour designed for adventurous souls. Whether you're travelling solo, as a couple, or with family, this experience offers adrenaline, nature, and history in one unforgettable journey.
Your adventure begins in Granada, where you'll meet at our designated starting point. From there, we head towards the mountain village of Monachil, climbing to the scenic Puerto del Purche, a natural balcony overlooking the city. This marks the gateway to the upper trails above the famous Los Cahorros de Monachil.
You’ll cycle through hidden paths, Mediterranean forests, and dramatic ravines like Barranco de los Mimbres, and visit the historic Diechar hydroelectric station — a symbol of the region’s connection to water and mountain life.
Along the way, crystal-clear springs such as Fuente de Diechar invite you to pause and breathe in the freshness of the Sierra. Then comes the challenge: the Collado de las Víboras, a winding ascent that rewards you with panoramic views of snow-capped peaks and the Granada valley.
Thanks to powerful electric mountain bikes, this route is accessible to most fitness levels. You’ll enjoy the thrill of climbing without exhaustion, focusing on the beauty around you — silent paths, untouched nature, and the raw energy of Sierra Nevada.
The return journey follows the picturesque A-395 mountain road, bringing you back to Granada, where your adventure began — now with unforgettable memories and a new perspective on the region.
✨ Ideal for travellers seeking a meaningful adventure. This is your gateway to paradise — above Los Cahorros de Monachil, into the hidden heart of Sierra Nevada.
