FAQs

Ideal bike: Any mountain bike. The choice will depend on each individual's priorities, but a full-suspension bike is always more comfortable on the trail.

Tires: Versatile tires are the most appropriate, as there are many different surfaces (rock slabs, paths, steps, tracks, loose rock sections, cobblestones, singletrack, etc.). This is an area with a lot of vegetation and fairly narrow trails: local bikers use tubeless tires or inner tubes with sealant.

Orientation: A self-guided route with the aid of a non-competitive GPS, a delightful way for mountain biking enthusiasts to enjoy. With a variety of landscapes in the Pre-Pyrenees, great food, and culture galore.

Best time: All year round. Mild temperatures in winter, higher in August.

Type of roads: The route runs along 100% cycle tracks and paths, including some asphalt sections to explore hidden, idyllic valleys, although technique is always important in MTB, especially on the trails.

Philosophy: This is a self-guided, non-competitive tour; the important thing is to enjoy mountain biking in its purest form.

Luggage transport: Given the technical nature of the route, it is highly recommended to book this service. The price depends on the number of people and the stages of the route.

Mechanical assistance: We offer the support of Ainsa stores as repair points.

Supplies: Some stages don't pass through towns where you can eat and drink, so it's advisable to be self-sufficient and book a picnic.
