Question Northern to Southern Spain Trip
Hello, I'm travelling solo on my Kawasaki GT750 from the UK. Taking a ferry to Santander in mid June this year. Then riding south to Almeria. I'll be camping on the way. I plan to take 5 to 6 days each way for the trip, meeting my wife in an hotel in Almeria. I plan to visit and stay in some of the villages south of Granada such as Orgiva and Trevelez. Can anyone suggest routes, maps and some good campsites to stay please? Thanks. Mike.

We did south to north completely avoiding motorways a couple of years ago. It was a brill ride taking an easy two and half days. Most of the time we seemed to be on the Ruta de Castilles. Lots of castles obviously but also some beautiful towns and villages. I can't remember the exact route but I am sure google will find it. We stayed in hostals we found on route. About 30-50euro per room per night depending on the hostal.

I like travelling in Spain. It's nice.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
