Cycling in Tenerife

Synergic Performance invites you to an unforgettable cycling tour in Tenerife. Spend a week riding the most scenic, challenging, and rewarding roads on the island – and cap it all off by participating in the Vuelta al Teide Gran Fondo on May 17, 2025.

This isn’t just a training camp. It’s a celebration of endurance, camaraderie, and pure cycling joy under the sun.

A Week of Riding Through Tenerife’s North

Each day of the week-long tour is carefully crafted to help you adapt, progress, and recover in rhythm with Tenerife’s landscape.

We explore the wild, rugged beauty of North Tenerife – from pine-covered climbs to windswept coastal routes. Expect panoramic views, smooth roads, and legs that feel it all (in the best way).

The routes build progressively, leading up to Gran Fondo readiness. You’ll tackle iconic climbs, enjoy fast-flowing descents, and rest at viewpoints that’ll make your ride photos unforgettable.

Ride Like a Local, Guided by Experts

Forget riding blind. With Synergic Performance, you get experienced local guides who know the roads like the back of their hands. They ride with you, support you, and keep things moving smoothly.

Need an adjustment mid-ride? Our support vehicle has you covered. Want to stop for coffee and almond cake in a cliffside café? Let’s do it.

Train Smart, Rest Well

We believe great riding happens with smart recovery. That’s why our tour includes daily route briefings and nutritional advice.

We’ll help you find cyclist-friendly accommodation in Puerto de la Cruz, close to the routes and full of character. Expect early breakfasts, secure bike storage, and good vibes.

Taste Real Tenerife

Off the bike, this is your chance to experience the real Tenerife. Think rustic Guachinche restaurants serving grilled meats, local wine, and papas arrugadas in the hills of La Orotava.

We’ll share meals, stories, and maybe even a local fiesta if the timing’s right. It’s a week for the legs and the soul.

The Grand Finale: Vuelta al Teide Gran Fondo

On May 17, 2025, you’ll take part in the Vuelta al Teide Gran Fondo, one of Spain’s most scenic and rewarding cycling events.

Choose from two route options:

  • Gran Fondo: 175 km and 4,400 m of elevation – a serious test of endurance.
  • Medio Fondo: 95 km and 2,000 m – a challenge with a gentler profile.

Ride with hundreds of other cyclists under the Teide volcano’s shadow. Feel the buzz, the energy, and the satisfaction of crossing that finish line knowing you’ve earned every kilometre.

How Vuelta al Teide Compares to the Mallorca 312

The Mallorca 312 is one of the most famous Gran Fondo events in Europe. It’s big, bold, and beautiful. But if you’re looking for a more meaningful, challenging, less crowded, and more scenic cycling experience, the Vuelta al Teide has the edge.

Here’s why Vuelta al Teide stands out:

  • Elevation and Challenge: While Mallorca 312 boasts distance, Vuelta al Teide delivers elevation. Climbing over 4,400 meters in one day gives you a true sense of accomplishment!
  • Less Traffic, More Nature: Mallorca’s roads can be crowded even during the event. Tenerife’s northern routes feel wilder and more untouched and the important sections are closed to traffic like Las Cruces descent and the Masca Climb. You ride with the mountain, not just on it.
  • Volcanic Drama: There’s nothing quite like riding under the shadow of Mount Teide. The landscape is otherworldly; black lava, high-altitude pine forests, and wide, open skies.
  • Personal Connection: Vuelta al Teide has a more intimate feel. It’s about the ride, the road, and the community, not just the spectacle.
  • Less Commercial, More Local: Mallorca 312 has the big-brand buzz. Vuelta al Teide gives you a genuine Canary Islands vibe with strong local support, passionate volunteers, and authentic post-ride hospitality.
  • Options: Vuelta Al teide also has a medium route with half the elevation so it is suitable for riders of many abilities.

If you’ve done the 312, come and try something new. If you haven’t, start with the one that has amazing climbs, let’s you see the beautiful North, and delivers adventure without the crowds.
