Bicis Ambroz
Bicis Ambroz hires out bikes in Hervás for riding down the Vía Verde de la Plata, the former railway between Plasencia and Salamanca, on its mountain stretch between Castilla y León and Extremadura. Its service is designed for families and for people who do not ride often.
How it works
They pick you up at their premises in Hervás at the booked time, take you by van to the start, usually Béjar, hand over the bike and explain the route. You ride down at your own pace, in about two and a half hours, and return the bike at their store in Hervás; if you carry on to Aldeanueva del Camino or Plasencia, they collect you there and take you back. Usual departures at 9:00, 10:15, 11:30 and 17:00; for groups of five or more they adjust the time.
