Sports and exercise are an important part of the life of many Valencians. The Turia Park, the boulevard, the beach and the Mediterranean Sea invite you to do sports. From early in the morning until late at night there is running, cycling, yoga classes and dance lessons. With 300 days of sunshine a year, there is enough reason to go out there.<\/p>\n

\"\"Running<\/strong> is very popular in Valencia. Both before and after the working day and the heat, the Valencians run a lot in the Turia park. There is even a special running path with lighting, water taps, mileage indication and special traffic signs for runners. Almost every weekend there is a competition that you can easily participate in as an amateur. The marathon<\/a> and halve marathon<\/a> are the most popular, but also the 10 kilometer<\/a> and the Carrera de la Mujer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Valencia has more than 160 kilometers of cycle paths<\/h3>\n

That makes Valencia an ideal city for cycling<\/strong>. In addition, unlike many other Spanish cities, Valencia is flat and has a pleasant climate. There are also more and more cycle paths outside the city. For example, there are the Via Verdes. These are cycle paths built on the former railway line. The longest route is the Via Verde Ojos Negros with 167.5 kilometers that goes from the mountains to just off the coast of Valencia. Book this route with Richard at Spainish<\/a> or take the bike on the train to Barracas and slowly descend towards the sea.<\/p>\n

\"\"If you want to do Yoga<\/strong> in Valencia, you can do so in the Turia park at Yoga with Jennison<\/a>. Jennison is an American from California who built her life in Valencia. In addition to a good workout, her Yoga classes are very pleasant and great joy. You meet nice people, and the yoga is at a beautiful place close to the City of Arts & Sciences.<\/p>\n

Football<\/strong> is a sport that many people watch from the stands or behind the television, but why not play football yourself. Pim has set up a competition schedule for his club Onda F.C.<\/a>. Every day you can join and play a game of football. The official language is English and Spanish, there are different levels, you play with many nationalities and there is also a women’s team.<\/p>\n

It won’t get any easier; sports in Valencia<\/h3>\n

Everywhere you look you see personal trainers<\/strong> who are training 1 on 1 or in a small group. Juan is an experienced trainer and helps you to tackle your weak spot. With tailor-made training, on a day and at a time that suits you. It doesn’t get any easier to stay in shape. Contact Juan from\u00a0Salud en Fitness<\/a> via Instagram.<\/p>\n

You can hike<\/strong> very well in the mountains around Valencia. The landscape is completely different than in and around the city. After the hustle and bustle of the city, it is a relief to go for a hike in the mountains outside the city. There are trails for beginners and advanced climbers. The Spaniards are like mountain goats when you see entire families clawing at the steepest paths. Stefan from Nuestra Aventura<\/a> knows the mountains like the back of his hand and is a good tour guide.<\/p>\n

\"\"Andreas organizes 3-day Padel<\/strong> trips to Valencia together with Alonso and Nacho. Where better to practice your favorite sport than in the heart of Padel sport. Nacho has more than 10 years of experience as a padel coach, and he is a member of the Padel Elite club in Paterna. Enjoy Valencia and take your game to a new level at Padel Retreat Spain<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Make new friends with sports<\/h3>\n

The beach volley<\/strong> fields of Beachbol<\/a> are located on the beach of Malvarrosa near the club Aquarella. If you are no longer a beginner in volleyball, you can easily join a group and if you want to learn there are beginners lessons a few times a week. You make friends super-fast and in addition to the beach volleyball, other fun activities are also organized.<\/p>\n

Be inspired by these examples. Valencia is a great inspiration to lead a healthy life with lots of exercise and a healthy diet. Match Better Valencia<\/a> is happy to help you build a new life in Valencia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
