Popular Cape Verde Mountain Biking Trails
• 85 ★ 0.0 • 3 miles • 107 ft • 4 •
Perhaps the most flowy single trail in the region. Wonderful views over the mountains of the Serra Malagueta.
• 100 ★ 0.0 • 3 miles • 197 ft • 3 •
The classic on Cape Verde. This top single trail is often blocked and not easy... It leads through the almost jungle-like landscape down to Principal, especially after the rainy season. Unique scenery - your trail adventure on Santiago.
• 95 ★ 0.0 • 4 miles • 992 ft • 2 •
Very adventurous single trail down to Achada Lagoa and then over the Passo De Gato to Mato Brazil. Often quite overgrown and slippery in the rainy season...
• ★ 0.0 • 3 miles • 48 ft • 2 •
The beach route between Guereo and Rasta Paradise. Can be ridden at low tide only. Low pressure, tubeless tyres required.
• ★ 0.0 • 3 miles • 286 ft • 2 •
A trail following the pylon line. The route can be indistinct after wet season (Aug - Sept) due to vegetation, but becomes clearer from November. Navigate with a bar mounted navigation device. Not for beginners.
• 5 ★ 0.0 • 3 miles • 7 ft • 2 •
Great and pretty difficult single trail in scenic landscape down into the valley of the Barca river. The 2nd part in the river valley is then technically very easy.
• ★ 0.0 • 5 miles • 106 ft • 2 •
North side of the mangrove, linking with the Southern trail. Sandy in places. The route adjacent to the mangrove can become muddy after rain.
• 5 ★ 5.0 • 3 miles • 53 ft • 2 •
Beautiful partly also technical single trail. After the rainy season rideable from about mid Nov. Built, improved and maintained by ThePlace Cabo Verde and King Fisher Village, Tarrafal.
