The Riding - Corner with Dust

Easy Access from Málaga Airport

Málaga Airport is one of the best-connected airports in Southern Europe, with direct flights from:

  • the UK
  • Netherlands
  • Germany
  • Belgium
  • Scandinavia
  • France
  • Ireland

That means shorter travel days, easier bike transport and more time riding.

The RSS Villa in Lanjarón is roughly:

  • 1h15 from Málaga Airport
  • 35 minutes from Granada
  • close to multiple riding zones across Andalucía

Many riders arrive in the morning and are riding trails the very same afternoon.

Uplifted Enduro & Downhill Riding

All riding days include 100% uplifted support to maximise descending and reduce unnecessary climbing.

Our holidays suit:

  • enduro riders
  • downhill riders
  • experienced trail riders
  • private groups
  • MTB clubs
  • solo riders joining mixed groups

The goal is simple: ride as much good terrain as possible.

Guided by Local Riders

Ride Southern Spain is built around local knowledge and flexible riding plans.

Instead of fixed routes every week, we adapt each day around:

  • trail conditions
  • weather
  • rider ability
  • group preferences

That means less time driving around or searching for trails and more time actually riding.

Depending on conditions and the group, we ride across:

  • Sierra Nevada
  • Granada region
  • Lanjarón
  • Costa Tropical
  • Andalucía mountain zones

Expect:

  • flowing singletrack
  • fast bermed trails

Each day is adapted around weather, riding level and trail conditions to keep the riding varied and enjoyable throughout the trip.
