The municipality officially receives the quality seals at a ceremony backing the sustainable ‘Mojácar Green Cycling’ strategy.
A selection of specialised companies also received the distinction after meeting the strict requirements for promotion, infrastructure and services demanded by the RFEC.
Mojácar has today taken a historic step in its consolidation as a top-level tourist destination on officially receiving the Bike Territory certification, a prestigious seal awarded by the Royal Spanish Cycling Federation (RFEC). This recognition places the municipality at the forefront of national cycle tourism, rewarding its decades-long track record as an undisputed leader and pioneer in the sports tourism sector.
The RFEC project awards the Bike Territory certificate to those entities and destinations that exemplarily combine their efforts to offer promotional activities, infrastructure improvements and specific services for the promotion of cycling and bicycle use. In this regard, the municipality has earned the award in the ‘Bike Territory Tourism’ category, aimed at regions that are firmly committed to promoting bicycle tourism.
A highly specialised business sector
The success of this certification is not only institutional, but also a reflection of the local private sector’s high level of specialisation and commitment. At the ceremony held on Thursday 28th of May, the seals were presented both to the Mojácar destination and to the first local businesses that have successfully passed the rigorous RFEC audits, gaining the ‘Bike Territory Businesse’ seal.
The first five certified companies are Hotel Marina Playa (Servigroup), Hotel Oasis Tropical (Best Hotels), Hotel El Puntazo, Bar San Pedro, and Mojácar Cycling Holidays.
To achieve this certification, the Mojácar establishments have demonstrated that their facilities and services meet strict quality criteria
The Local Council and businesses actively contribute to the Promotion of the Mojácar destination as the perfect place for cycling, at both the professional and amateur level.
Mojácar Green Cycling: Sustainability and Sport
The Mayor of Mojácar expressed his utmost satisfaction during the award ceremony, emphasizing that this milestone was a priority goal for the municipality. This achievement fits directly within ‘Mojácar Green Cycling’,’ the ambitious local project that combines specialisation in cycling, sustainability, and sports tourism with low environmental impact.
‘Mojácar Green Cycling’ is one of the strategic initiatives included in the Mojácar Destination Sustainable Development Plan, ensuring balanced tourism growth that respects the natural environment and with a high added value for the local economy by completely breaking the cycle of seasonality.
By obtaining the Bike Territory seals, Mojácar not only celebrates its history linked to cycling but is also pedalling steadily toward a sustainable and healthy future.
