Cycling day trip from Logroño to Santo Domingo de la Calzada

Kick off your cycling adventure in the historic city of Logroño, known for its vibrant tapas scene along Calle Laurel and fantastic Rioja wines. As you pedal out, you'll be surrounded by a mix of picturesque vineyards and lush countryside that just screams "stop and snap a photo!"

The journey to Santo Domingo de la Calzada is about 59.5 kilometers of pure joy, mostly on tracks and quiet roads, perfect for soaking in the tranquil landscapes. You'll enjoy a bit of everything: a good chunk of gravel paths (hello, adventure!) and some smooth stretches of asphalt to pick up the pace.

As you move through the rolling hills, there's a total ascent of around 971 meters to keep your legs happy and energized. Don't worry, there's a woody downhill ride waiting with a descent of about 719 meters to give those legs a little break.

Once you arrive in Santo Domingo de la Calzada, take a moment to marvel at its famous cathedral, where legend has it that a rooster crowed after being cooked! Make sure to stroll around this charming town—it’s a rewarding end to an awesome ride. Enjoy your trip!
