Road cycling day trips from Málaga

One-day travel cycling routes starting and ending in Málaga, created for riders who want to explore the region from the city as their base during a cycling vacation in Andalusia. They are designed primarily for road and gravel bikes, but many of them can also be adapted to other types of bikes depending on your preferences and riding style.

These routes blend cycling with local culture, landscapes and a sense of adventure. They are intended to be explored with different types of rental bikes in Malaga, allowing you to choose the setup that best fits your route and riding style.
