Route of the Caliphate on a bike from Córdoba to Granada

Traveling on the Route of the Caliphate is an experience that brings together two of the most emblematic cities of ancient al-Andalus: Cordoba and Granada. “The Route of the Caliphate” is designated Major European Cultural Itinerary. The prestigious Foundation Legado Andalusí in co-operation with Otros Caminos has re-discovered this itinerary and developed it as a historical and cultural experience, connecting the cities of Cordova and Granada with their world cultural heritages: the stunning “Mezquita” in Cordova and the marvelous “Alhambra” in Granada. The ride leads through wide variety of terrains, passing through a host of villages. Betake a journey through time and across unique landscapes and natural reserves that feature along the way. Ride through landscapes with tranquil hills of olive groves, holm-oak woods, vegetable gardens and vineyards, rushing streams, imposing watchtowers, proud castles, impeccable farmhouses and humble farmsteads, all giving the backdrop to an unforgettable visit. Enjoy the villages, castles, churches and towns that stretch before you just waiting to be discovered, such as Baena, Luque, Priego, Zuheros, Alcaudete, Castillo de Locubín, Alcalá la Real, Tózar, Moclín, that now give their name to some of the world’s finest olive oils.
