The best MTB cycling routes in the province of Seville

Las mejores rutas en bicicleta de MTB por la provincia de Sevilla


Without major slopes or mountain ranges, Seville is an ideal destination for cycle tourism and for those seeking accessible routes on a mountain bike. Although the north of the province presents a more rugged terrain, most of the landscape is shaped by the valley and depression of the Guadalquivir River, with extensive plains, scrubland, and the emblematic Andalusian farmhouses of the Sevillian countryside, in towns such as Morón de la Frontera, Osuna, or Utrera. If you are passionate about cross country (XC), you will find wide tracks and dirt roads perfect for covering long distances smoothly. For enduro lovers, the areas with greater elevation in the Sierra Norte offer technical trails and demanding descents that will test your biking skills. In addition, you can't miss cycling through Seville city and its surroundings, one of the Spanish cities best adapted to cycling mobility, with more than 80 kilometers of bike lanes, both urban and suburban. Whether you are looking for a relaxed route or a more technical challenge, having the right mountain bike will make all the difference on every ride.

Sierra Norte Route

We start with this route through the north of the province, on the right bank of the Guadalquivir and near the border with Extremadura. The route follows the Sierra Norte Greenway, with no major orographic difficulties except for some steeper trails with stones. The journey passes by the Cerro del Hierro mining reserve, the Huésnar waterfalls, surrounded by lush vegetation, where you can take a dip if the heat is on, or the artificial beach of San Nicolás del Puerto.

Very accessible flat route around Seville, with start and finish in the Andalusian capital. We pass through towns on the outskirts of Seville such as Camas to climb up to Castilleja de Guzmán and head for La Alondra, where we find one of the few demanding climbs of the route, around kilometer 28. We cross the typical cereal fields of the Guadalquivir Valley, in the Aljarafe region, also visiting towns such as Santiponce, Salteras, or Valenciana de la Concepción.
