Track Enduro MTB through the north of Gran Canaria

As we told you, the route is circular, so you can leave from any point where the track passes and it would be better for you. In any case, we recommend that you leave from the Los Chorros restaurant (Firgas). Or if you wanted to shorten it a bit, you could start at Valsendero.

The Ventana del Norte: 6 downhills to enjoy your Enduro MTB bike

The track has 6 downhills that run through the northern area of Gran Canaria. Some of them have become part of the Gran Canaria downhill or enduro cup. None of them have an extreme technical level and they are a lot of fun.

  • Hike of El Pinillo
  • Cuevas de Caballero
  • Enduro Artenara
  • Piconera Pinos de Gáldar
  • Dh of Fontanales
  • Curvas del acero

✔ Info to take into account before making the route

As it is a long route, it is important that you bring enough money and/or food and water to complete it without any problem. It is perfect for cyclists in good physical shape or for electric bikes, but on hot days it can be hard due to so much climbing. As we told you, it is not excessively difficult, although it goes through some descents of the Gran Canaria cup. The perfect bike to do the tour would be a full suspension All Mountain bike with 14cm of travel.
