MTB-Tour Küste, Brandung und Berge

The starting point is the waterfront promenade in Playa Blanca. Along the promenade to the lighthouse, then continue on the promenade through the urbanizations to open terrain, further along the coast on a narrow, not easy to ride surface. A secure riding technique facilitates managing this section of the route. Those who do not want to walk the beach section in front of the saline should take the LZ-701 to the next roundabout. Then a slight climb to Las Brenas and a descent on the LZ-703 towards Playa Blanca. The following climb (km 24.5) on loose gravel requires superb fitness – but it can also be pushed. At the top, you are greeted by goats in a goat pen standing here. The following 5 km downhill is insane, but requires attention. Since the route passes near the Papagayo beaches, a detour there is advisable.

Note: Those who avoid the steep, gravelly climb should do the tour in reverse. The climb to the goat pen is then significantly longer but less demanding.
