Discover the freedom of the Camino de Santiago with Tienda Bicigrino’s e-bike rentals. Cover more ground effortlessly and take in Galicia’s unique mix of history and nature with ease.
Santiago de Compostela, the vibrant capital of Spain's A Coruña province in Galicia, is famed worldwide as the terminus of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. While the city itself offers centuries-old cathedrals and winding medieval streets, the surrounding landscape brims with lush forests, rolling hills, and quiet rural villages best experienced on two wheels. Tienda Bicigrino taps into this unique setting with their E-Bike Medium rental service, blending traditional pilgrimage routes with modern electric mobility.
Their medium-level e-bikes provide up to 100 kilometers of battery life and cruise comfortably at an average speed of 25 km/h, making the Camino accessible beyond seasoned cyclists. Whether you want to feel the flow of distant Galician meadows or traverse rugged trails near Santiago, the bikes reduce fatigue and invite longer, more immersive rides through historic and natural surroundings. The ride itself becomes part ceremony, part adventure, with quality gear that keeps pace with both the pilgrim spirit and outdoor exploration.
What makes Tienda Bicigrino stand out is its focus on cycling tourism tailored to this culturally rich corridor.
