About this tour
Tear through the countryside surrounding Ribera on a quad bike, starting from the town centre and heading straight to the medieval stronghold of Castello Poggiodiana. You'll tackle river crossings and rough tracks threading between citrus and olive groves, stopping to take in the Verdura canyon and the sprawl of valley down to the coast. The two-hour loop mixes genuine back-country terrain with enough pace to get your heart going, finishing where you started.

What to expect
You'll collect your quad at Ribera's historic centre and head out on a mix of working farm tracks and single trails. The first proper stop is Castello Poggiodiana, where you'll leave the bikes briefly to scout the castle ruins and the panoramic drop towards the coast. The real riding happens in the second half—river crossings that require concentration, narrow paths between agricultural land, and enough bumps to remind you you're off-road. Nothing extreme, but you will feel it.
