Ready for a new touring gravel experience? Have you just bought a new gravel bike and are looking for adventure? Do you want to try bikepacking with supervision? This gravel bikepacking trip to Portugal is the perfect opportunity for you!


This cycling trip is a perfect mix of roads and paths. Technically it's not too difficult (most trails are suitable for 4x4 vehicles), but the off-road sections offer cyclists the opportunity to reach villages and vistas inaccessible with a road bike.


You have the choice between a guided or independent trip. As part of a guided trip, our truck will transport your luggage and you will stay in small hotels or BnBs en route. If you opt for complete autonomy, you will carry your own luggage and stay in the same types of accommodation

Exceptional courses adapted to all levels

Our meticulously chosen itineraries guarantee you an authentic experience and our tours are designed to suit all levels. Experienced cyclists will find technical and sporting challenges during this stay.

Organization and support of professionals

Throughout your stay, you will be accompanied by a qualified professional guide, who will be able to answer your questions about the history of the place, give you technical advice on cycling and help you progress. He will also assist you in the event of mechanical problems and guarantee your comfort and safety.
