Extremadura Motorcycle Tour – Via de la Plata

This Extremadura motorcycle tour starts and ends in Málaga, showing you one of Spain's quietest riding regions. As a guided Spain motorcycle tour, our team handles all logistics: airport transfer, tour hotel and evening briefing. On well-maintained roads you experience pure on-road riding along the historic Via de la Plata, past grazing meadows, cork oak forests and centuries-old monastery towns. A tour bus with a spare motorcycle accompanies the group for the entire route.

Highlights

Sierra Morena Curves

Between Málaga and Zafra, the Sierra Morena section leads through varied hilly landscapes with long sweeping bends, good tarmac roads, oak forests and bull pastures – a perfect opening stretch for motorcyclists looking for relaxed riding.

Historic Cáceres Old Town

The Cáceres stage takes you into one of Spain's finest old towns, with well-preserved palaces dating from the 14th century, narrow alleyways and an atmosphere that draws visitors back to this corner of Extremadura time and again.

Black Madonna of Guadalupe

In Guadalupe you reach the famous monastery of the Black Madonna, patroness of all Spanish-speaking countries, nestled in the mountain scenery of the Sierra de Gredos – a major cultural highlight of this Extremadura route.

Conquistador Town Trujillo

Trujillo is the birthplace of conquistador Pizarro, featuring a medieval fortress, seven town gates and one of the finest historic main squares in all of Extremadura – a rewarding stop on this guided Spain motorcycle tour.

Andalusian Mountain Passes

The final leg leads through Sierra Grazalema and over the winding Puerto de las Palomas pass towards Ronda before the route returns to Málaga, rounding off the tour with some of Spain's finest motorcycle mountain riding.
