As told up, here you have the Gastronomic Experiences selectable for this Tour (one per stage).
You'll have to choose... It's not an easy task, we know. The shorter the trip, the more difficult the choice.

LAGUARDIA - POSADA MAYOR de MIGUELOA

Palacio de Viana, 17th century, Nobility and Tradition... uninterrupted winemaking tradition since 1690, absolute winner by public votes in the Best Of awards People´s Choice Award 2.023, and production of their own wines in their cellar/calao, a space that will also be our restaurant....

We have not needed more, the curriculum shown in the previous paragraph has been enough to make us incorporate without any doubt its owner in the list of Gastronomic Experiences that shape DOMINIO de RIOJA.
The rest... is not history, is future, and it is waiting for you.

LAGUARDIA - LOS PARAJES

2 Restaurants, a Wine bar, and a 16th-century Wine cellar intertwined with the building's foundations set the stage for our Gastronomic Experience Los Parajes de Laguardia.

Several generations of the same family keep the gastronomic "tension" of the place alive over time.

The recognition with the Best Of Wine Tourism award given by GREAT WINE CAPITALS for 2.026 tells us about the modernity of what's ancient turned contemporary, the essence that permeates the Gastronomic Experience FUENTES del VINO CULINARY BIKE TOUR Los Parajes de Laguardia.

LOGROÑO - LA GALERÍA or TONDELUNA

For the arrival to Logroño we have proposed two differents options of "encounter" with the Riojan gastronomy.
One of them by Luisa Barrachina and the well-known Riojan chef Francis Paniego (3 Michelin stars) in the TONDELUNA Restaurant, and another one by the chef José Félix Rodríguez in the innovative LA GALERÍA

TONDELUNA is a modern, informal and fun place that has prepared a FUENTES del VINO menu to introduce cyclists of the route to some of the secrets of modern Riojan cuisine.

LA GALERÍA is a space with minimalist architecture whose walls periodically house traveling exhibitions of painting artists, filling the space with art and color.

The menu FUENTES del VINO menu consists of a tasting always adapted to the season in which we visit the city, and we leave it in the hands of José Félix Rodríguez, a cook who trained at the Santo Domingo School and then continued to cultivate and develop his art in houses like Arzak, Martín Berasategui, Koldo Royo, Aitor Basabe and Ferrán Adriá.

EZCARAY - ECHAURREN

We arrive at Ezcaray... we are looking for Gastronomic Experiences... the destination is inevitable, we enter
EL PORTAL del ECHAURREN.

Beyond the undoubted importance of the premises´ 2 Michelin stars, at LA RIOJA PUNTO BIKE we believe that the quality of EL PORTAL del ECHAURREN stems from the constancy maintained by a team with its feet firmly on the ground. In this case, on the ground of LA RIOJA.
Under the direction of the dynamic Chef Francis Paniego... direction + enthusiasm + determination -we know that he has something of a cyclist- over the years, the word Echaurren has simply become synonymous with Gastronomy. We will have to check it ...

The Experience EL PORTAL del ECHAURREN will consist of a Tasting Menu that will begin in the hotel lounge, continue at the bar and end at EL PORTAL.

Images of dishes that are shown in this proposal can or not correspond to our menus. During our Stage "we will submit ourselves" to a regime regulated by seasonal products and by the criterion of the Staff of the Echaurren.

El Portal del Echaurren is closed Sunday nights, Mondays and Tuesdays. If your Stage matches these days we will offer an alternative.

And since we spent two nights in Ezcaray on our trip, we'll also have the privilege of experiencing the more traditional cuisine of El Echaurren, which was the origin of the current "Gastronomic Temple."

An old carriage stop from the 17th century converted into a Gastronomic Hotel. A woman, Marisa Sánchez, architect back in 1957 of a revision of the traditional Riojan cookbook and who also back in 1987 earned her the National Gastronomy Award for the best Chef. Like mother Like Son...
We enter the TRADITION.

We are in Ezcaray, we are in the Echaurren, we are on vacation ... better to think little.
As almost always when we are in this place, we "submit" to the Echaurren TRADITION Tasting Menu paired with the wines that they tell us to taste.

Images of dishes that are shown in this proposal can or not correspond to our menus.
The season rules ...

• Lodging for stages with start in LAGUARDIA

For the stay at LAGUARDIA we must choose between 2 different Lodges, each one with its own Gastronomic Experience (both inside the walls of the village)

Posada Mayor de Migueloa

Palacio de Viana, an old space rehabilitated as a hotel, absolute winner by public votes in the Best Of Wine Tourism 2.023 awards, and located within the walls of the town of LAGUARDIA. We have not needed more information, without any doubt this is one of our PUNTOs BIKE in LAGUARDIA.





Hospederia Los Parajes

Hotel - Restaurant - Spa - Vinotheque - Wine Cave, A unique Palace in the village. This is how, with a touch of humility and no more fuss, one of our "star" PUNTO BIKE in LAGUARDIA defines itself.
The recognition with the Best Of Wine Tourism 2.026 award in the Accommodation category, granted by GREAT WINE CAPITALS, confirms our choice.





• Lodging for stages with start in LOGROÑO

Our PUNTO BIKE in LOGROÑO, is set in the Hotel GRAN VÍA, the best choice in town if we need to blend lodge and BIKE.

We are talking about a 4-star establishment well sited in the center of the town and strongly involved in a large part of the sports and gastronomic activities linked to LOGROÑO.





Hotel FG Logroño

We have chosen this hotel located on the banks of the Ebro for our days in Logroño. In addition to its unbeatable location, their quality is unquestionable, we are talking about a four star service "camouflaged" in one of three.
To the usual services of a hotel of these features we add that we have free access to the relaxation of the hotel zone, which consists of a jacuzzi, sauna and gym.





• EZCARAY - Hotel Echaurren 4*

The base of LA RIOJA PUNTO BIKE in Ezcaray for this Stage is the ECHAURREN Hotel. The indisputable "Sanctuary Riojano, both in terms of Accommodation and Gastronomy. Nowadays, an establishment with renowned and enduring international recognition.

For us, in addition, the services for cycling such as garage and bike cleaning areas that the hotel has, adds to the whole the missing fifth star.
