Have you looked at Ride Sierra Nevada. They ride on the Grenada side of the mountains compared to Ciclo and Switchbacks. I would say, if anything the trails are better than on the South side. Weather may be a little warmer as well.

Based right on the beach with plenty of Winter sun to enjoy.
Stunning singletrack rides with plenty of bus uplift during the day & fun après-bike on the coast at night.
Just 540 Euros for a packed week! Still have limited space in April.

No thanks Alan.
Mrs stu has ridden with you before and I don't think you're what we're looking for...

Might not be warm enough, haven't looked but what about the Pyrenees? Had a week, my first not on these shores, with Altitude Adventure at the end of September and it was amazing!

Lavatrax in Tenerife?

Might not be warm enough

I kinda read the OP as looking to minimise the weather risk - just not sure the Pyrenees would do that in April.

^^ fair enough, like I said, hadn't looked so will bear in mind for any future trips I may take 😀

Come to us in S Cataluña,we've got a 3 bed apt and I'll be your guide for a week. Hundreds of km of fabulous trails and usually good weather in April. E mail in profile. We're doing this professionally and can promise you a brill time.

You got a website piston?

Not yet, if you drop me an email, I'll send you all the details and some photos. We're just getting going, have a look on Bearbones re a trip I organised in early May, Spanish C2C written by Dave Barter. Riding here is mainly cross country with lots of singletrack, ranging from sea level to around 1300m, pine forests and open hillsides.

bikingandalucia.com, Sierra Nevada, Andalucia, southern Spain, mainly xc, best weather in mainland Europe, flights into Malaga and Granada, https://bikingandalucia.com/mountain-biking/typical-ride-profiles-with-biking-andalucia/

Though I loved the riding in Molini I'm really not sure I can cope with the sleep deprivation that the church bells every 15 minutes night and day give you.

Those freaking bells, been such contentious issue, but finally they have switched them off in the eve, The 7am one is still mental.

We are doing different trips next year as well as a new beach location.

Orangespyderman, the weather on the south side of the Pyrenees should be pretty perfect in April. Sounds like the op has plenty of choice but just to clear that up. It's very different from the north of the Pyrenees to the south.

Altea? Chipps is a fan of the road riding round there and last year discovered trails with these guys too [url= http://costablancaenduroland.com/the-biking/ ]Enduro land Costa Blanca[/url]

Couple of guys I know swear by Nava freeride, not far from Riviera, they're over there now. Looks ace.

Thanks for the suggestions.
We've been in touch with Enduroland Costa Blanca but they've not replied.
Nasher.
Thanks for the info.
I'll have another look at your site and we may well be in touch now. 🙂

@singlespeed Stu, new site not up yet, but if u need some info, just drop us a line

Will do.

Have emailed you nasher.

Oh god those flipping bells!!!! I'm a light sleeper so as soon as they went off that was it, wide awake. There's approx 5 quieter bells and then 57 yes 57!!!! loud bells, a short pause and then 7 quieter bells. Then the town see it as an okay to move and start their day. Doors slamming, cars starting, motorbikes trundling past!

Ask nasher about Nava Freeride, we had a great day over there on his suggestion.

We've got a bit on in April, mainly Sardinia and Andalucia:

I must've enjoyed the local red wine too much, can't recall the bells at all! We weren't in the hotel mind, they had us in the big rooftop apartment down the road.

Brilliant holiday that.

Glad I read this thread now as we're out with nasher next weekend, will take earplugs 😀
