Based out of the historic city of Segovia, to the north of Madrid in central Spain.
Segovia is a UNESCO World Heritage Town with a magnificent cultural heritage that includes the awe inspiring 1st Century AD Roman aqueduct, the spectacular Alcazar fortress, and miles of accessible, open countryside stretching to the Sierra de Guadarrama. A buzzing university hub, it’s big enough to boast lively squares, interesting shops and numerous restaurants, yet small enough to be easily negotiated on foot. Accommodation on this ride includes 2 nights close to the 18th C Royal Palace at La Granja, a few kilometres from Segovia, and 2 nights in central Segovia, at the comfortable Parador. Each day will be carefully organised with a varied riding route to allow a ‘sporty’, energetic pace, a break for aperitifs and tapas, a long lunch in traditional Spanish style and a relaxing dinner at a hand-picked restaurant, enjoying good company, good food, wine and conversation.
Confident, capable riders who love energetic riding, appreciate comfortable accommodation, and want to join a small group with dedicated, knowledgable and entertaining hosts. Your local guide Ana and her team are fun, well-informed and professional. Richard is charming, easy going and entertaining company. They all know Segovia well – and it’s a beautiful, historic city to visit. Whether you’re a racing enthusiast, an adventure enthusiast or just want a few days of fun, good quality riding with interesting companions who’ve done numerous different and exciting things in their lives, this will make a perfect autumn escape.
A proper and refreshing escape, in just 4 days. Richard’s life of challenge, achievement and adventure has lead him to become a motivational speaker, a wonderful photographer and an all-round inspiring companion and he knows Segovia well. He’s good fun, good company and full of interesting stories. You’ll come back from this exhilarated, hugely entertained and may have learnt a little history too – without having to arrange a thing yourself.
