Discover Portugal riding the famous road N2 from South to North! Starting with the countdown of 738 km in the center of Faro and ending 5 days after in Chaves at the km 0 ! Great challenge for any cycling enthusiast!
Ride across Portugal with MTBcamps.
​
Starting from Algarve, Faro towards the punchy climbs of the south surrounded by the cork trees.
Followed by the plains of Alentejo, where the life seems untouched by the modern world.
As you approach the north the hills start to get longer and vegetation greener. Last day of riding guides you through the famous Douro wine fields and arriving to Chaves few kilometers away from the border of Spain. For the more adventures, we can go until the border of Spain and get back to Chaves.
​
There are 5 days of riding. The longest day is the D2, but the heaviest on the legs probably the last one, so it is nice to have the shortest day D4. The accommodation is high quality rural hotels, that add to the experience of riding through Portugal and staying in typical housing in the different parts of Portugal. We can adjust the trip by the fitness and needs of your riding group, from 5 riding days up to 9.
​
The essence of the trip is to get to know Portugal by bike, stopping at local villages for coffee and snacks, capturing moments while riding through the different landscapes.
Overnight stays are chosen to add to the experience, to get the sense of different ways of living throughout Portugal.
