    Really pretty ride with very little climbing. The terrain is varied, from coastal paths, to boardwalks and pine forest trails full of birdlife. There are plenty of opportunities for coffee stops or lunch 👍

    Good trail

    A very nice circular trail mostly on dirt roads passing through a rural area, a beach, traditonal salt exploration, a fishing port, a market and a McDee. Careful with the passing of ditches and the train tracks.

    From Lagos to Odeceixe trying to avoid as much road as possible and trying to be as close to the cliffs as possible. Pretty tough route from Carrapateira to Aljezur but the hidden Praia do Canal worths it!!

    Roads and well surfaced track for a fast 40km blast through the cork oaks of Portugal. From the high point of 191m, there is a very long, very fast track downhill with just a couple of road washouts to watch out for!

    This is a really easy ride, taking in mixed terrain, so is ideal for mountain bikes, but you could complete on trekking bikes also. There isn't to much climbing either, so a relatively straightforward 40 miler
