Central Loop from La Santa through Timanfaya

From La Santa, the steady climb to Tinajo is a smooth warm-up. Then it’s into the lava fields of Timanfaya, riding through a raw, otherworldly landscape. After a fast drop into Yaiza, continue through Uga and into La Geria, where black ash vineyards and quiet roads create one of the island’s most iconic stretches. The route cuts inland through Puerto del Carmen and climbs again to Tías, a good spot to refuel. From there, roll through Mozaga before a sweeping descent to Famara under towering cliffs. A final rise through Soo brings you back to La Santa.
