Why Cyclists Are Moving to Murcia
Imagine stepping out of your villa, clicking into your pedals, and coasting onto buttery-smooth roads under a Mediterranean sun. For carbon road cyclists considering a property abroad, Murcia is more than a holiday spot—it’s a lifestyle investment.
This hidden gem in southeast Spain is drawing in riders from the UK, Nordics, and Benelux not just for training camps, but as a base for year-round road cycling paired with affordable, high-quality living.
Year-Round Riding Conditions
Murcia boasts over 300 days of sunshine annually with low rainfall and mild winters. The terrain is diverse—coastal rollers, mountain ascents, and quiet inland loops—making it ideal whether you’re a casual rider or racing enthusiast. No need to pack up your bike every autumn—here, cycling is a twelve-month affair.
Where Cyclists Are Buying Homes
Many cycling-focused buyers settle in communities that combine luxury living with easy access to iconic routes:
El Valle Golf Resort: Elevated and peaceful, minutes from the Cresta del Gallo climb.
La Torre Golf Resort: A sociable base with access to scenic countryside loops.
Altaona Golf & Wellness Resort: Ideal for recovery-focused riders who value spa and wellness amenities.
Each resort offers secure bike storage, quiet roads, and a community of like-minded residents.
