Public bicycle rental in Bilbao.

The city of Bilbao has its own bicycle rental service, Bilbaobizi. Throughout the city you will see different loan points where users can pick up and drop off their bicycles. At present, the city council of Bilbao has more than 40 points of this type scattered throughout the city. Unfortunately, it is necessary to provide several documents to register, so this option is not viable for people who are tourists in Bilbao. Waiting in line at the Bilbao municipal office and paying the €25 registration fee for this service is not worth it for a traveler who is going to spend a week in the Basque Country. For much less money (from 8€) and without waiting in line, we can rent a bike for 2 hours from here. Easy, comfortable, safe and at the best price. Impossible to improve it.

Bike tour in Bilbao.

As we have mentioned before, the city of Bilbao is located between mountains, at the bottom of a valley. A fact that makes many of the neighborhoods are literally on the hillside, on a slope. However, the urban center and the most emblematic areas are located in a completely flat space. And it is here, in the center, where bicycle rentals are especially important. Now then, the million dollar question: What route can we do if we rent a bike in Bilbao? The best option is to ride along the estuary on both banks.

A circular route that allows us to know most of the attractions of the capital of Bizkaia in about 3 hours. In this case, as we pick up the bicycles at the height of the sandy area, on the other bank, we recommend you to continue along the promenade that we find next to the estuary towards the Guggenheim Museum, downstream. You can’t get lost. If we follow this route downstream, we will find places of great interest such as the Guggenheim Museum, the Iberdrola Tower, the Euskalduna Palace, the San Mames soccer stadium or the Carola Crane.

Once at the Bilbao Maritime Museum (Itsasmuseum), we must use the bidegorri (bike lane) of the Euskalduna Bridge to cross to the other side. Once in Deusto we will continue our particular route knowing the Tiger building, the Guggenheim Museum, the Bilbao City Hall or the Old Town. Remember that along the way there are several bridges that we can use to cross from one bank to the other.

A very attractive walk that we recommend you to eyes closed. Of course, a lot of caution. Let’s respect pedestrians. In case this tour is not to your liking, we encourage you to use the comment system that you will find at the end of this article to send us your doubts and queries.
