Program
Leaving behind the beautiful Morella and the Maestrazgo region, you will arrive at the desert of the Bardenas Reales, where you will discover landscapes that will take your breath away.
You will return to the south to visit the Jiloca region; in the surroundings of Calamocha (in collaboration with the adventure company 4×4 Tierra Safari). You will sleep in a glamping camp in the middle of the mountains.
You will continue towards the southwest to delight yourselves with the beautiful Albarracin and its famous Muslim walls, and you will finish the stage in Cuenca, where you will enjoy its famous hanging houses, its sickles, and the curious karstic landscape of the Enchanted City. You will end the trip returning to Valencia, but not before crossing a beautiful nearby region full of vineyards.
This experience is fantastic because 90% of its route runs along secondary roads very little traveled perfect for a motorcycle trip, for the visit to the Bardenas Reales and its unique landscapes and of course for the exclusive experience of a glamping camp in the middle of nothing, where you will dine in the light of the stars.
Of course, remember that, as Spain Moto Experiences are hardcore foodies and gourmets, this experience also will take you to visit the best restaurants to taste the best dishes of the area, and all this washed down with the best wines … Mmmm!
