Description of trip

From the golden beaches of the Algarve to the cliffs of Sagres, following the coast to Lisbon. EuroVelo 1 crosses a Portugal of white villages, ocean and open landscapes, where the light changes together with the rhythm of the pedals.

It starts from Faro, runs along the southern coast towards Albufeira and Portimão and reaches Sagres. From here the journey goes up the Costa Vicentina, between Carrapateira and Odeceixe, to continue in the Alentejo towards Sines and Setúbal. The arrival in Lisbon concludes the itinerary between historical neighborhoods and views of the Tagus.

A accompanied proposal for a small group of women, with trekking bikes for hire, selected hotels and B&Bs and seven dinners to share. A discreet habit is required to pedal to tackle with pleasure the length of the route.
