Gran Canaria Cycling Camp
Gran Canaria
WorldTour Cycling Camp
Seven days. One legendary island. Ride alongside coach and athlete Angela Naeth and Canary Islands endurance specialist Alfredo Montes for an exclusive, fully supported training week most cyclists only dream about — epic climbs, SAG vehicles on every stage, luxury lodging, premium fueling, and a tight crew of motivated athletes. This is your WorldTour experience.
There's a reason the pros train on Gran Canaria all winter. I've been more than once and fallen for it every single time — the climbs, the roads, the light. Nowhere else gives you this kind of riding all in one place. I'm bringing our community to the island I love most, the way it's meant to be ridden: fully supported, no detail left to chance. It's going to be something special.

Is This You?
Who It's For
This is a true endurance cycling camp — built for athletes ready to ride every single day, with stages of 2 to 6+ hours on beautiful climbs and stunning open roads. It's the perfect fit for committed road cyclists, triathletes, and gravel athletes who want a structured, fully supported, high-volume block in a world-class setting.
Don't let the climbing numbers scare you — every ride day has both an Official/Epic route and a Softer/Shorter option, so you can ride comfortably at your own pace with full guiding. Not sure if it's your level? Reach out before you book — we'll help you decide.
You'll thrive here if you…
- Can ride multiple days back-to-back without burning out.
- Are comfortable with 2–6 hour rides and real climbing (at your pace).
- Are a cyclist, triathlete, or endurance athlete ready to level up.
- Want elite coaching, logistics, and recovery handled for you.
- Love training hard alongside like-minded riders.
