Stay and ride deep
Basecamps
Stay in one riding region. Ride deep from a strong local hub.
A basecamp is where trails, season, terrain, accommodation, food, culture and local support come together into a rideable week.
How Epic trips work
From idea to ride week.
Spain is full of extraordinary riding. The hard part is knowing where to go, when to go, what to ride, and how to make it work as a real trip. That is where Epic comes in.
Basecamps + Expeditions
Two ways to ride Spain
Epic Bike Trails works across two ride formats: Basecamps and Expeditions.
Basecamps are built for focused ride weeks: one strong MTB hub, several days of curated routes, local support, accommodation, food and culture.
Expeditions are built for movement: long-distance routes, changing landscapes, stages, history and a clear start-to-finish objective.
Whether you want to stay and ride deep, or move across Spain through a bigger story, we help shape the trip around your crew, season, bikes, riding level and ambition.
The Epic method
A trip built around your crew.
We are not selling random trails in a beautiful place. We shape the format, riding, logistics and rhythm so a Basecamp week or Expedition journey makes sense together.
Which format
Basecamp depth or Expedition movement, matched to the way your group wants to ride.
What to ride
Daily routes, stages, alternatives, trail notes and difficulty logic.
How it works
Accommodation, bikes, transfers, luggage, support and recovery options.
What changes
Weather calls, energy levels, backup plans and local advice.
01
Basecamp or Expedition
Choose your format
Choose a Basecamp if you want to stay in one riding region and ride deep from a strong local hub. Choose an Expedition if you want to move across Spain on a long-distance route with stages, landscapes and a clear objective. Not sure which format fits? That is exactly where we start.
- Basecamp weeks
- Expedition routes
- Season fit
- Trip ambition

Build the ride logic
We shape the trip logic
For Basecamps, we match the destination, route character, season, accommodation, bike rental and local support. For Expeditions, we shape the stage logic, route flow, start/finish logistics, accommodation rhythm, luggage/support options and cultural highlights.
- Route character
- Stage logic
- Accommodation rhythm
- Local support
04
Arrive prepared
Ride with confidence
You arrive with a clear plan: route logic, support options, practical guidance, weather awareness and realistic ride days. The goal is simple: less guessing, better riding, and a trip that fits your group.
- Route logic
- Support options
- Weather awareness
- Realistic ride days
05
Shape the support
Add the right level of support
Choose the support format that fits the trip: Self-Guided, Self-Guided Plus or Epic Guided. Keep it independent, add more planning and logistics support, or ride with local knowledge on technical or remote terrain.
- Self-Guided
- Self-Guided Plus
- Epic Guided
- Flexible support
Trip types
Choose your support level.
Support levels can apply to both Basecamps and Expeditions. The difference is the trip format: Basecamps focus on one riding hub, while Expeditions follow a longer route across stages.
Choose the level of support you want. Self-Guided gives you independence with smart route logic. Self-Guided Plus adds more planning, options and logistics support. Epic Guided adds local knowledge, adaptive decisions and confidence on technical or remote terrain.
