Winter Sun - Special Offers for Mountain Biking in February & March 2013.

February and March are superb months during which to plan a holiday to Spain.

One of the great things about the Costa Blanca is the ability to do outdoor sports – pretty much throughout the year. For anyone living here this is a tremendous luxury and this is particularly true of sports that require dry weather. Certainly, Mediterranean Spain tends to bathe in the luxury of over 300 clear days a year and this is a boon whether you are a walker, golfer, cyclist, sailor or, like myself, a rock climber. All of a sudden you can find that the frustrations of living in Northern Europe and battling the weather largely disappear. In fact, the endurance element (with regard to the weather) of your particular sport can be left, thankfully, well behind. Rock climbing, of course, is a very weather dependent sport (you can only climb when rock is dry!) and it is therefore an excellent gauge of what you can do on the [...]

Just 35 minutes drive from Refugio Monduver lies the Natural Park of Albufera de Valencia. The freshwater lake of some 40 square kms is surrounded by rice fields, which are the origin of Spain´s most famous dish Paella. The Valencia area produces over 100,000 tonnes of rice each year and the village of El Palmar, located on the southern shore of the lake is where the Valencians go to enjoy this most traditional of dishes. The lake and surrounding rice fields and reed beds provide crucial habitat to a wide range of bird species. There are over 4,000 pairs of Herons and Egrets and over 500 Glossy Ibis. In spring, species such as Collared Pratincole, Purple Heron, Night Heron and Great Reed Warbler make their annual migration from Africa and arrive in Albufera to breed. The park also provides wintering grounds for over 100,000 ducks. Perhaps the best way to [...]
