Where Earth Becomes Legend: The Sierra Negra Crucible  isn't just a ride; it's an odyssey across a primal landscape, one of our favourite spots in The Pyrenees. Its trails forge paths through what appears to be the raw, exposed skeleton of the mountains—a vast, lunar canvas that demands focus and rewards courage. This is the terrain that defines our pinnacle MTB tours in The Pyrenees. 

Although the surface looks challenging—a relentless mix of broken shale and sweeping rock gardens -, the riding actually goes through a flowy endless trail. It's like flowing over the surface of the moon. 

From these flanks, you gaze upon the colossal Spanish Pyrenees, dominated by the ice-clad 3400 m giant Aneto peak. This view is the ultimate backdrop to your conquest.

Earlier this year, Blacktown Trails partnered with LOAM agency on a significant project: the launch of Shimano's revolutionary XTR M9200 groupset. This extensive media and customer camp in Altea, Alicante, Spain, demanded not only exceptional mountain bike guiding, but also intricate logistical and organizational prowess. While Altea might not be our most frequented Blacktown Trails riding zone, LOAM's confidence in our unmatched MTB guiding expertise in Spain led to our selection. Working hand-in-hand, we leveraged our deep experience and professional planning to create a truly outstanding event, showcasing our capacity for high-level MTB tour management and delivering an unforgettable experience for all participants.

Since E-MTBs started popping up in our trails like ants on a cake, we had our doubts on whether they were for us. It was an opposite concept to our romantic philosophy of riding. Until one day we realised if was a perfect tool for scouting new trails. And we started covering more trails, more distance in shorter time. And we understood how fun that was. It's not for every day. But surely, it is a great fun tool for many days. That's why we have created a dedicated E-MTB tour in La Sierra de Madrid, specifically created to be ridden with E-MTBs and enjoy the pleasures of an electric powered bike. Because life it's too short to be narrowed to fewer options...
