MTBing in Galicia

[keyses]

Hi, I'm visiting friends in Galicia soon and will probably be bringing my bike. Just wondering what the area is like for mtb trails. Also what would be a good map to use and what restrictions are there on mtbing in Spain (e.g are there any paths/areas you cant cycle on/in. Thanks in advance of any help.

Actually, there are almost no forbidden areas on mtbing in Galicia...

As Pablo said, if you go to Vigo area, you´ll find lots of nice trails to ride...Coruxo, for example, which has been a World Cup DH venue for the last three years...

Cool, thanks. So it looks like its a case of find a map and go play.

Hi,
I've been riding in Christmas in the area of Ourense, great area to Mountain bike, lot's of single trails. as for maps I've used a 1:25000 topo map and found my way around pretty well, not to mention my cousin shown me some of the trails there.
But there is also a group of riders that meet regular for rides there you can find the post http://www.foromtb.com/f46/rutas-y-q...se-122123.html

good luck
