Authentic Algarve By Bike

  • Cycle to Cape St Vicente, the southwestern-most point of continental Europe
  • Take in the birding paradise of the Ria Formosa Natural Park
  • Cycle past the limestone cliffs of Ponta da Piedade
  • Discover the hidden inland villages of the “real” Algarve
This cycling tour in the Algarve takes you all the way along the coast, from Tavira in the east to Sagres at the south western tip of Portugal. Explore hidden inland villages, the Natural Park and lagoon of the Ria Formosa, and fantastic coastal scenery. This is the true Algarve, where the beach crowds are non-existent and where you can cycle through wonderful natural spectacles and relax in gorgeous hotels at the end of your day’s exertions. You'll pedal through cork-oak forests, along rugged coastlines and encounter the “Pego do Inferno”, the most beautiful waterfall in the Algarve.
