Portugal Nature TrailsItinerary
Transfer from Lisbon to Estremoz
After your arrival, we will drive you to Estremoz.
This is an old town where you will feel like a Queen or King when you spend the night at the castle. You’ll be staying at a historical building converted into a hotel where you can admire a superb view over Estremoz and the vast Alentejo plain.
Bike Estremoz Loop
On the first day, you will start cycling by pastoral fields.
The only sounds are the jingling bells from the flocks of bleating sheep. As you follow the rural landscape, you will pass by some villages with the typical Alentejo whitewashed homes outlined in blue and ochre trim. The wine culture will enter your path from the very first day, as you will visit a winery where you can taste different red and white wines. But be careful, not too much! You still have some kilometers to do until you get to the hotel.
Bike from Estremoz to Vila Viçosa
After a delicious breakfast, you will cycle through villages and historical landscapes.
Discover battle stages, villages of conquerors, and old communities that have rippled their influence through time and are now great hospitable people. Towards Vila Viçosa, the capital of marble in Portugal, you can visit the Ducal Palace, built in the 16th and 17th centuries on the remains of Roman and Moorish buildings. You will have plenty of free time today, so we suggest you walk around and enjoy the charm of the streets close to the town center.
Bike Vila Viçosa Loop
A gorgeous day is awaiting you!
Today, you will ride toward Spain through a landscape of cork trees, olive groves, and flocks of sheep. Admire the beautiful Guadiana River that separates Portugal from Spain and make a stop to visit Juromenha, a picturesque village overlooking Spain. On this day, you must face some uphills while returning to Vila Viçosa, but your efforts will be rewarded with a delicious meal at night.
Bike from Vila Viçosa to Monsaraz
The time has come to leave Vila Viçosa and ride towards the south, passing the village of Alandroal.
On the way, you will feel the delightful scent of the oleander flowers that grow on the shrubs and trees. The wood from these trees was used by local artisans. Arriving in Monsaraz, notice the presence of cultural history and medieval architecture. This village was occupied since the prehistoric era, and megalithic monuments are physical evidence of that. We suggest you visit Menhir of Outeiro right before checking into your accommodation.
Bike from Monsaraz to Redondo
After a peaceful night's rest, get up on your bike and prepare for a ride bathed in a golden landscape towards Redondo.
When you arrive at the hotel museum in Redondo, you will find an impressive collection of tiles. A remarkable ceramic work that is centuries old and essentially a reflection of Alentejo's cultural style. This building used to be a convent. You'll be fascinated by how the Kings have been sleeping here since the 1500s. To finish the day, challenge your taste and pallet by learning more about Portuguese wine at the Wine museum in the center. Don't miss it!
Bike from Redondo to Évora
A beautiful day riding hills of gold and green.
Discover cork trees, pristine vineyards, and a pastoral countryside dotted by abandoned castles. After all these days of rolling hills traversing through past, present, and old-world heritage, the time has come to finally arrive at the most beautiful historical city in the country. Évora is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Can you imagine such a place? Make your way there and keep exploring!
Bike Évora Loop
Évora is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has 2.000 years of history.
After a late breakfast, it's time to finally explore the surroundings and get to know this unique town. Soon, you will arrive in Arraiolos, noted for its colorful, hand-stitched woolen tapestries. There must be space back home to fit one in your living room! This will be the last day of riding, and you will have the unique opportunity of celebrating with some Portuguese wine right at its birthplace! Saúde!
Transfer from Évora to Lisbon
Your splendid trip has come to an end.
We hope the memories and experiences we have created and shared stay with you forever. Come back soon to discover some more of Portugal's Nature Trails!
