Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z León do Astorga

This ride takes you from León, a city known for its stunning Gothic cathedral and lively tapas scene, all the way to the historic town of Astorga—a gem on the famous Camino de Santiago. The route is just under 54 km and mostly follows quiet tracks and roads, allowing you to relax and enjoy the surrounding Castilian landscape. There’s a gentle mix of ups and downs, with an overall ascent of about 376 meters, so expect some mild climbs balanced by equally satisfying descents.

Surface conditions are generally good—mostly missing info, but you’ll encounter sections of paved roads and some gravel, which adds a touch of adventure. Just make sure your bike can handle the varied terrain.

Astorga is the perfect finish: a small town with Roman roots, well-known for its chocolate and the striking Gaudí-designed Episcopal Palace. Whether you’re following pilgrimage paths or just out for a day ride, this route rewards you with incredible views, peaceful roads, and a taste of Spanish history at both ends.
