Lavelo Cycling Apartments is inside the Costa Blanca mountains, in Fageca (Alicante, Spain), at 750 m. Alicante airport (ALC) is about 95 km away and Valencia (VLC) about 125 km: around 1 h 30 by car from either. ### Why stay in the mountains rather than on the coast? Every route starts at the door, without the 20–40 km of flat road from the coast to reach the climbs. Every route finishes uphill, climbing back to the apartments. And you ride the climbs against the flow of the coastal groups, with the road to yourselves. ### When is the best time to come? Winters in the Costa Blanca mountains are mild and dry, which is why nearly every UCI team trains here in winter. On the coast, December to February average a maximum of 17 °C with 3–4 days of rain a month; in the mountains it is a few degrees cooler. ### What are the apartments like? Four private apartments in the same building, each for two riders: memory foam mattresses, a full kitchen, climate control, high-speed fibre and a private bathroom with a hot shower. ### Where do the bikes go? In the secure bike storage in the building, with an area to assemble them. ### Can I rent a road bike? Yes, on request: tell us on WhatsApp (+34 623 997 204) and we arrange it with a local partner. ### Is there a physio or massage? On request, with a local partner. Ask on WhatsApp. ### What does the team car carry? It follows the group on the agreed route with water, nutrition, basic tools, spare tubes and a first-aid kit. ### Do you give us the routes as GPX? Route GPX files are given to guests during their stay. ### Can non-riding partners or family come? Stay: yes, non‑riding partners or family are welcome. LaVolta LaVelo and Training camp: places are priced the same whether you ride or not; these weeks are designed for riders. Custom: tell us and we’ll see if it fits your plan. ### How hard is the week? About 500 km and 10,000 m of climbing in six stages, from 59 to 107 km each. The timings are planned at amateur pace, with a feed stop from the team car every two hours. ### Are dinners included? No. Every evening we drive you to a restaurant and bring you back; the transport is included and each rider pays their own dinner. ### Are there café or lunch stops on the stages? No. The team car feeds you every two hours: each stage splits into three, with two short breaks to refuel. What you have in bars along the way is on you. ### When does it run? There is no fixed date. The week runs Sunday to Sunday and each group agrees its week on WhatsApp. ### Can I join on my own? No. LaVolta LaVelo runs for private groups of 6 to 15 riders. We don’t add solo riders to a week. ### How do we pay and what is the cancellation policy? Booking: a 200 € deposit for the whole group; refundable up to 30 days before the start. Balance: due 20 days before the start; 50% refundable until 10 days before; after that, no refund. ## Other ways to come - [Stay: apartments by dates](https://lavelo.es/offers/stay.md): Choose this if your group organises its own riding and meals and needs the base, or wants to add single services rather than a full programme. - [Training camp](https://lavelo.es/offers/training-camp.md): Choose this if you bring your own training plan and want the logistics solved: transfer, team car and food in the kitchen. - [Personalised package](https://lavelo.es/offers/custom.md): Choose this if neither the plain stay nor a closed package fits: other dates or length, a different group size, specific routes or a particular mix of services. --- Contact: WhatsApp +34 623 997 204 · https://lavelo.es · Version 2, 2026-11-11
