training camps

Over the years we've found that more and more riders are entering endurance events like the TransWales, Sleepless in the Saddle or 10 Under The Ben. Good on you!

Given that spring comes early to the Spanish mountains, we've adapted our alpujarra adventure weeks to accommodate all you enduro riders out there.

Riding

For our training camps we shift the focus away from technical riding and more towards full-on endurance. We supply you with plenty of lung-busting climbs, big mountain days and scenery that will take your breath away! Not mention more than enough singletrack to keep you intrested, but not so much that your lightweight race machine can't cope with it.

Before you even arrive we'll take the time to find out what sort of training you want to do. Want to mix it up with some trail running or navigation work? No problem, our experience in expedition guiding and endurance sport means we're covered for (almost) any combination!

During your stay you'll have up to 5 days of guided riding/training (our guide gets a day off midweek) with full 4x4 support.

Accommodation

Rather than working out of a single house or cortijo we spread our accommodation throughout different Alpujarran villages: meaning we can tailor everything to your requirements. Our base prices are inclusive of a stay in a bright, spacious village house, sleeping around 6. Groups of less than 6 may be sharing with other guests who are making up the riding party. Should you wish to upgrade your accommodation, e.g. an en-suite room in a small hotel, or an apartment/house with a pool we can see what's available and arrange for an additional fee.

Catering

As with all our holidays breakfast and lunch are provided each day. For those staying in a village house breakfast supplies are delivered and you make up your own. If you've upgraded to a hotel then they will look after this. Lunch is either packed up and taken on the trail or served as a picnic from the 4x4.

Evening meals are not included in the price and are taken out or you can cater in if staying in a village house. During busy periods we'll a book you a table at the restaurant of your choice, so you’ll never be wandering the streets searching out your dinner.

Cost

€455 for the week in a shared house.

€565 for the week in a small hotel with en-suite bathroom.

Enquire for costs in other accomodation options.

Dates

Available throughout the year, though Spring seems to be the popular choice!
