South to North

Full-Day Motorcycle Guided Tour: The Epic Island Traverse

Prepare yourself for an epic ride that’s as much about the journey as the destination. We kick off from Playa del Ingles, revving our engines and heading north through Ingenio. The ride starts easy, with wide, smooth turns that make you feel like you’re slicing through the air. But don’t get too comfortable—things are about to get interesting.

As we turn inland, the road starts to climb and so does your adrenaline. With every twist and turn, the views expand until you’re staring at a panorama that stretches from the bustling city of Las Palmas to the serene southern coast, with the vast ocean as your backdrop. This is the kind of ride where you’re torn between focusing on the road and getting lost in the scenery.

Our ascent brings us to the legendary Pico de las Nieves, the island’s highest point and a must-visit for any serious rider.

Here, we’ll take a well-earned break, chat with a local “abuelo” (who’s been perfecting his bocadillos with a love only years of practice can bring) and soak in the jaw-dropping views of Roque Nublo and Roque Bentayga. Trust us, it doesn’t get more Gran Canaria than this.

After fueling up on both food and the sheer awesomeness of the landscape, we descend towards Gáldar, only to turn our bikes back up into the mountains on a different route.

Suddenly, it’s like you’ve been transported to another world. The landscape shifts from rugged island terrain to something straight out of Scotland or Ireland, with lush greenery as far as the eye can see. This is the greener side of Gran Canaria, where the island’s hidden beauty really comes to life.

Through the highs and lows of the island’s center, we make our way down through the charming villages of Ayacata and Fataga, each turn revealing more of the island’s natural splendor. By the time we roll back into Playa del Ingles, you’ll feel like you’ve just conquered not one, but several different islands—all in a single, unforgettable ride.

This is the kind of tour that leaves a mark, one that every rider dreams of. If you’re ready to experience one of Gran Canaria’s most epic motorcycle journey, book your tour with Pic y Poc today. This is where your riding story becomes legend.
