Tenerife by bike in autumn: the perfect start to the season

When the cold starts in northern Europe, the cycling season begins in Tenerife. Autumn is an excellent time to come: the weather is still good, there are fewer people than in summer and the roads are inviting.

Mild temperatures

After the summer heat, autumn brings very pleasant temperatures on the coast and cool mornings in the mountains. Perfect weather for spending many hours on the bike.

Quieter roads

After the summer, visitor numbers drop and the mountain roads are quieter. A good time for the big routes, such as Masca or Mount Teide.

Watch the shorter days

It gets dark earlier, so plan long rides with an early start. It can get much cooler up high, and the first rain may arrive in the north of the island.

Tips for your trip

• Bring arm warmers and a windproof for the descents.
• Check the forecast and choose the side of the island according to the weather.
• Use it to prepare your season with a training week.
