Lavatrax Videos
We love video, it makes things much easier when trying to describe the trails to people.
We are also seeing a huge increase in the number of clients arriving with their helmet cams, ready to record their mountain biking adventures here in Tenerife. We love seeing the results, so please feel free to bring you camera along and share the results with us afterwards!
So, on this page, we will give you access to our trail guides and a couple of "mini movies" along with video from our recent visitors.
Here is a little taster, but we hope you enjoy them all!
The Long Way Down has become one of our classic XC routes, taking riders from around 2400m back down to sea level, it is a truly epic ride, and now with the "plus" version of the ride for rocky singletrack and switchback junkies, there is something for everyone.
The Las Lajas XC route has now been renamed as the Los Retamares Descent to avoid confusion with the Las Lajas DH route. Here we have one of our early videos of this classic trail.
The La Esperanza ride is one of our favourites, with some tough climbs right from the start, it's a challenge, but has the sigletrack descents to reward you for your efforts!
The Arenas Negras Trail Guide
The Arenas Negras route is a perfect ride for those who are less experienced, but still have reasonable fitness. Theis route also gives some fantastic scenery and views over the island.
The Camino Aldea Blanca is a favourite training loop for me. It now also features as part of the Vilaflor Caminos route and as one of the Southern trails on the DH weeks.
Thanks to Cryothresh for letting us use his video. We don't always use the Los Retamares trail as a DH route, but decided to give it a try. The extra speed certainly meant the the route is worthy of inclusion as a DH trail.
Vilaflor Caminos with Aage and Alex
Big thanks to Aage and Alex for sending in their edited video of their day on the Vilaflor Caminos route. We all had a fantastic day even with a few extra bumps and bruises!
