E-Bike to the Top of the Rock

E-Bike to the Top of the Rock

Located at the entrance to the Mediterranean, Gibraltar rises dramatically between Europe and Africa, commanding one of the world’s busiest sea-lanes. Your adventure begins with a guided walk to Imperial Ocean Plaza, where premium e-bikes and helmets are issued before setting out. Ride from Waterport Gate across the Gibraltar Airfield runway and through the Kingsway cycle tunnel to Eastern Beach. Continue to Catalan Bay, a traditional fishing village, before reaching Europa Point and its lighthouse overlooking the Strait toward North Africa.

Pedal onward into the Upper Rock Nature Reserve, pausing at the Pillars of Hercules monument and the Queen’s Balcony for sweeping views over town and harbor. Marvel at the impressive stalactites of St Michael’s Cave, then encounter the Barbary macaques in their natural habitat. From Princess Caroline’s Battery, look out across the airfield before descending through the Upper Town’s narrow streets. Return along Line Wall Road above the old city defenses, pass through Casemates Square, and conclude at Ocean Village, with the option to remain in town or walk back to the pier.

Notes: This is a steep uphill bike ride and while the E-Bike is helpful, you should still be able to ride a bike uphill to reach the top viewpoints. Guests must be able to negotiate a 15-minute walk between the pier and Imperial Ocean Plaza (approximately 1 km / 0.6 miles round trip) over uneven and sloping surfaces. Participants must be capable of riding a bicycle. The minimum height requirement is over 155 cm (5 ft 1 in), and the minimum age is over 12 years. This is a strenuous tour that requires sustained physical effort. Guests must be able to participate without discomfort or difficulty in breathing. Cycling takes place on urban roads and within the Nature Reserve. Comfortable clothing is recommended. Closed shoes are required to participate. Sunscreen and a hat are strongly advised.
