Alentejo and Algarve are known as the pearls of southern Portugal because of their beautiful beaches, whitewashed villages and great local cuisine.
On top of that, their amazing coastal roads make them perfect for a leisurely cycling holiday. On this self guided cycling tour, you will pedal from Odeceixe to Cabo Sao Vicente, the most south-western point of Portugal and Continental Europe. Most of the cycling is on dirt roads, taking you through charming authentic villages, flowered fields, beautiful cliffs and wild beaches. The daily distances are short enough so that you have time to fully enjoy the sites and landscapes along the way as well as the local food and wine.
