The Wild Coast Challenge is an incredible tour that will make you want to come back and see more of Portugal. You will ride along the most beautiful coast-line of our country, which stretches from Sesimbra to the south-westernmost point of Europe. Admire the natural beauty of different sceneries, cross two natural reserves, discover some small fishing villages with abandoned fortresses and other medieval countryside towns full of interesting people and tasty, typical food. The trip will finish at Cape São Vicente, which adds a dramatic and historical full stop to this wonderful trip.

our cycling trip along the Portuguese coast was simply perfect. Good lodging, perfect itinerary, and impeccable organisation. We strongly reccomend Portugal Nature trails to anyone who wants to have a cycling tour with some of the most stunning coasts we have ever seen.

We have just completed the 9 day self guided cycling tour from Sesimbra to Sagres. Definitely recommend the trip with beautiful coastal scenery, interesting villages and a variety of routes on country roads and tracks in national parks. The bikes and equipment were excellent and the people at Portugal Nature Trails very helpful.

My very large group of 19 recently completed the Wild Atlantic Coast trip and found it utterly awe-inspiring (as well as numerous other adjectives). On the first night at the exceptional Monte Xisto Hotel, I set the expectation that life begins at the edge of everyone’s comfort zone, and this trip matched those expectations to a tee. The terrain was a mix of relatively rough tarmac roads, dirt/hardpack tracks, and somewhat technical mountain riding (think steep inclines/descents, water hazards, sand, etc). The bikes provided were well suited towards the various terrains, and everyone was challenged every day to follow the provided RWGPS routes to the mind-blowing scenery along the way, which was well worth the effort. At the end of each day, we were rewarded with stays at a range of well-selected accomodations, from high-end resorts to rustic, authentic houses in an ancient village. Additionally, we were well cared for along the way, as our transportation/luggage transfer agent also provided some needed assistance in caring for our very muddy bikes, and making suggestions on route modifications based on some specific requests. When all was said and done, the group departed Sagres on the operator-provided transportation back to Lisbon, where we spent a couple of nights on our own to augment the countryside experience with some cosmopolitan day/nightlife before heading back home. Lastly, prior to to the trip commencing, the booking staff was exceptional in meeting the needs of our group during the entire process, including some specific requests we had along the way, including changing the group size, adding/subtracing participants, etc. I would HIGHLY recommend PNT to anyone considering Portugal as a destination for any adventure planned.
