The Best Cycling Routes in Lanzarote

Leave Puerto del Carmen and ride through Tías, Guime, and the edge of Arrecife before reaching Costa Teguise. Head north through Guatiza and Órzola, where black lava fields meet the Atlantic. From there, climb to Mirador del Río, a steady 10 kilometers lined with volcanic stone and sweeping ocean views. There are nice coffee and snacks stops in Yé, Haría, or Máguez. Continue through the palm valley of Haría, then roll south through Teguise and Mozaga into La Geria before returning to Puerto del Carmen via La Asomada.

Start in La Santa and ride north through Soo to the cliffs of Famara, where the Atlantic meets rock and sand. Climb through Teguise and into the palm valleys of Haría, with chances to pause in Teguise, Máguez, or Haría before tackling the scenic ascent to Mirador del Río. After a short descent, pass through Yé and Órzola, then head southeast through Guatiza and inland toward the coast near Costa Teguise. From Arrecife climb through Montaña Blanca into the stone-walled vineyards of La Geria. From Yaiza, roll across the lava plains of Timanfaya, then take on the final climb near Tinajo before descending back to La Santa. With over 2,000 meters of elevation and smooth roads throughout, this full island loop delivers Lanzarote’s most dramatic landscapes in one ride.

Climb out of La Santa through Soo’s gentle hills, then pass the quiet lanes of Muñique and Tiagua on the way to Tao. Ride through Mozaga and San Bartolomé, where white houses sit among wide volcanic views. From there, head toward Costa Teguise for a well-earned coffee stop near the coast. Continue south into Arrecife, then turn inland through Guime and Montaña Blanca, where quiet roads trace the island’s rural interior. Enter the volcanic park for open views over lava fields and craters, then climb to Tinajo and descend gently back to La Santa.
