Excursion à vélo d’une journée de San Miguel de Salinas à Torrevieja

Spin out from hilltop San Miguel de Salinas and roll gently toward the coast on a mostly easy, net‑downhill ride to Torrevieja (about 22.5 km). The route strings together quiet roads with long stretches of cycleway, and just a brief busier section as you enter town. Surfaces are largely paved, so it’s smooth going, with only a couple bits that feel more mixed.

You’ll pass citrus groves and skirt the La Mata–Torrevieja Natural Park; keep an eye out for salt pans and, in season, flamingos. Elevation stays friendly (around 57 m up, 125 m down; max ~86 m), making this a relaxed cruise.

San Miguel de Salinas is known for its traditional vibe and big views across the salt lakes. Torrevieja greets you with a seafront promenade, beaches, and its famous pink salt lagoon—worth a detour for photos. Expect a coastal breeze near the end; bring water and sunscreen, and watch for roundabouts on the approach into town.
