Full description

After meeting your expert guide in Maspalomas, hop on your electric-powered e-bike for a tour of the city’s stunning environs. Bound for Ayagaures, a small village nestled in the hills, cross a lush valley adorned with palm trees, cacti, wildflowers, and other native Canarian flora. Stop by a wild goat farm on the way, learning about how the animal has become an icon for Gran Canaria. As you head toward the top of Ayagaures, explore the Maspalomas, Gran Canaria's immense golden sand dunes situated directly against the brilliant blue sea.

Then, head to the Maspalomas Botanical Garden for a walking tour, where you'll learn to identify the main species of tropical plants that call the island home. Once you reach the top of Ayagaures mountain, stop for a half-hour break, during which you’ll sample traditional Canarian tapas in a bar built inside an ancient aboriginal cave (if option selected).

Afterward, continue to the vast Ayagaures Dam, where you’ll stop at a picturesque bridge for the perfect view of the massive reservoir.  The return trip is all downhill, so get ready for a little bit of adventure. As you zip down the hill, you’ll pause at a camel farm to meet a few of the curious beasts, and learn of their significance in the culture of the Canary Islands and beyond.

Later, you’ll return to the meeting point, having seen some of the most beautiful natural sights that Maspalomas has to offer.

This was absolutely amazing and I’m so glad we did this tour on the first day. The guide Lorenzo, was fantastically knowledgeable, really interesting to listen to and such a lovely person. I would recommend this tour to everyone! Especially with the tapas, that was sensational!

Lorenzo war ein Superguide. Er wusste die Tour interessant und lustig zu gestalten. Die Fahrräder, die Helme und die Westen waren klasse. Super war das die Sicherheitswesten frisch gewaschen waren. Die Tour in die Berge war nicht anstrengend und der Rückweg bergab hat super Spaß gemacht. Die Tapas in der kleinen Höhle haben sich absolut gelohnt. Lecker und richtig viel. Absolut zu empfehlen

Toller E-Bike Ausflug in die Ayagaures-Berge bis hin zum Ayagaures Staudamm. Tour ging ca. 30 km. Am Meeting Point angekommen wurden wir herzlich von Eleonora in Empfang genommen. Passende Helme, Westen und Fahrräder wurden ausgewählt und pünktlich um 17 Uhr startete Lorenzo die Tour mit uns. Wir waren im gesamten 6 Personen. Zuerst gab uns Lorenzo einen kleinen Einblicke in Hotspots von Playa de Ingles (z.B. Dünen, Landestypische Pflanzen,…), dann ging es langsam bergauf bis zu dem Plateau dem Stausee vorbei an Mango und Advocado Plantagen. Räder sind im super Zustand. Tour ist auch für unsportliche Personen sehr gut zu schaffen, da die Räder auch bei leichten Ansteigungen ordentlich Schub geben… Abschluss gab es in einer kleinen Taverne. Wir hatten die Tour ohne Tapas gebucht. Kann aber jedem empfehlen diese mitzubuchen da diese sehr lecker ausgesehen haben und auch reichlich waren.
