Best Destinations for Cycling in Northern Spain

Few places offer the variety and beauty of cycling in Northern Spain, and it’s easy to see why this region is such a favourite for Saddle Skedaddle holidays. From the lush, green landscapes of Galicia, where many Camino de Santiago journeys reach their iconic finale, to the dramatic, wave-lashed coastlines of the Basque Country, every ride brings a different perspective and pace of life.
Asturias is a true hidden gem for cyclists, with quiet mountain passes, rolling hills and sweeping ocean views that reward every climb. Neighbouring Cantabria blends peaceful inland riding with characterful fishing villages along the coast, offering a relaxed and authentic feel throughout. Heading inland, Navarre and La Rioja provide a contrasting experience, where smooth rural roads wind through vineyards, historic towns and sun-drenched valleys, ideal for those who enjoy steady touring days with plenty of cultural stops along the way.
Whether you’re following the historic Camino routes, exploring coastal trails, or riding through Spain’s renowned wine regions, Northern Spain delivers a rich mix of scenery, culture and cycling terrain that makes every day in the saddle memorable.
