Andorra is the most difficult place you can imagine trying to navigate without a guide – there is no official mapping, and the ones which do exist are very inaccurate! Just getting into the huge backcountry is very difficult without knowledgeable logistical support. Additionally, almost every valley below 1800m is covered in thick forests, so you can’t even see where you are! However, it’s this which makes Andorra almost unique in Western Europe – our trail network is almost deserted, other than by a few locals and guided walkers. There’s no lack of trails once you know where to find them, but they simply don’t get much use! This means that almost wherever we ride we barely see anyone at all. We take you to phenomenal singletrack in every corner of this tiny country, yet we have genuinely had weeks where we have not met another trail user. You are going to be amazed, not just by how good the riding in Andorra is, not even by incredibly beautiful and unspoiled it is: mainly you are going to wonder “why the hell have I not ridden here sooner?”!
Our 6-times-a-day free transfer service from Barcelona airport brings you directly to the door of our fantastic, bike-friendly hotels and apartments in the small town of La Massana. Nestled deep in a beautiful wooded valley, the town sits at the foot of enormous mountains in every direction – you can descend over 1000m from the peak of nearby Cubil to the town, without turning a pedal. Our accommodation is based with easy access to the main lift station, and we are surrounded by lots of great places to eat and drink. It is Andorra’s busiest & best positioned summer town, full of fellow riders enjoying Vallnord Bike Park, which hosted the MTB World Championships and is now one of the best-loved annual World Cup venues.
