Or MTB Algarve – The Best Bike Rental and Guided Tours in Algarve, Portugal
The Algarve is a fantastic place for cycling with some of the best cycling routes in the world. Just imagine cycling in the Algarve – access to some of the most amazing coastline, beaches, beautiful fishing villages, and then beyond into the hills. Explore the areas of the Barrocal, the intermediate country that lies between the coast and the hills behind, or explore the vast open spaces, pure air, fresh vistas around every corner up in the hills. Don’t be surprised to discover hamlets of just four or five houses perched on a hilltop or found along a hill track. You may land up truly feeling that time has simply stopped still. For those wanting more than just a beach holiday, there is so much to offer in this region. Cycling, walking, surfing and kite surfing – our weather for so many more months of the year compared to other places is perfect.
