Don’t miss this beautiful half-day in the gorgeous hills near Ronda. Its (easy) exercise too :-) - This was a perfect experience. The cycle path had spectacular views and we were lucky enough to do this in May when we were surrounded by fields of wild flowers. It was truly beautiful. The cycling was easy, a lot of gliding downhill with easy pedalling. We wore a number of thin layers of clothing which worked well as the temperature went up and down - cooler in the tunnels, warmer in the sunshine. Lee, our guide was excellent. Picked us up exactly on time, gave us lots of information, set us up with the bikes at the beginning and picked us up at the end. The bikes and helmets were brand new and top quality. Plenty of gears, disc brakes, lights for the tunnels, clean and well serviced. Lee even offered extra padding for the seats if we wanted it. We cycled on a Monday (less busy than the weekends), so we had the whole gorgeous path to ourselves most of the time. All of it went really smoothly, the views were great and the photo opportunities were abundant. We totally recommend this as a beautiful day out from Ronda.

Lovely cycle along the Via Verde De La Sierra with White Village Tours - This is a lovely cycle route suitable for all abilities. The views are beautiful, there are several viaducts to cross and it was very exciting cycling through the many disused railway tunnels. There is a vulture sanctuary and a cafe en route. Lee, who runs White Village Tours provided high quality bikes and good instructions and was waiting at the end of the 35km route with cool bottles of water. A lovely day out. ☺️

Favorite Ronda Experience - We had an amazing day on the Via Verde. We are in fairly good shape but in our upper 60's-70's. The easy trail was a good level for us. Lee Clark was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Our tour time had to be changed because of rain and he arranged a pick-up location closer to our hotel. The bicycles were in excellent condition and Lee adjusted them for a perfect fit and provided water bottles and lights for riding through the tunnels. I highly recommend Lee Clark and White Village Tours.

Flat & stunning cycle ride - Absolutely loved the Via Verde de la Sierra cycle ride. Especially as it was nice and flat so I could keep up with my husband. Lee took us to the start and collected us at the end which made it so easy. The bike was very comfortable, with a helmet and water bottle provided. We loved the 31 tunnels (the longest is almost 1km!) and the scenery was just stunning. Lee couldn’t do enough for us and was very knowledgeable. All in all, highly recommended.

Cycling the Via Verde de la Sierra - If you are looking for an experience with adventure, fun and learning, I think you are at the right place! We had a great time exploring Ronda and the surroundings, learned a lot about the local history & culture, and biking with breathtaking vistas was a great way to do all of this. Lee is absolutely amazing; he is knowledgeable, easy going and we felt looked after. I can only recommend hitting up White Village Tours when you are in the area - an experience you'll never forget! 😊 Gracias!

Fantastic cycling experience - We had a fantastic day cycling the Via Verde de la Sierra. Pick up at the meeting point and at the finish line was right on time. The bicycles and equipment were in excellent order. Water was provided for the trip and ice cold water at the finish. The cycling trip itself was excellent. 37 kilometers with an average descent of 10 meters per kilometer make for an easy cycling experience. The views along the way are stunning. You cycle through the landscape without being disturbed by any traffic. At the halfway point there is a griffon vulture information centre. The largest population of griffon vultures in Andalusia can be seen there: 400+ vultures. A little bit further is a small bar where you can stop for drinks and refreshments. I can recommend this trip to anyone!
