Crossing Portugal on gravel
This journey is engineered specifically for gravel enthusiasts seeking a true physical and technical challenge. We traverse Portugal across two distinct terrains, blending fast-rolling inland farm tracks with rugged, unpaved coastal trails.
From Marvão through the Alentejo countryside
Our adventure begins with a pre-tour welcome night in Lisbon before transferring inland to Marvão. The first phase of our ride immerses you in the rural Alentejo countryside. You will embark on scenic dirt tracks winding through cork oak forests and farmlands dotted with whitewashed farmsteads.
The Atlantic and the Fishermen's Trail
The second phase shifts dramatically as we meet the Atlantic. We follow the renowned Rota Vicentina southward, navigating the rugged doubletrack of the Fishermen's Trail. You will ride past the cliffside village of Zambujeira do Mar and the picturesque beach of Odeceixe, nestled at the mouth of the Seixe River.
