The Slow Cyclist in Portugal

The Slow Cyclist in Portugal

Home to some of Europe's most beautiful villages, expansive wilderness and delicious regional wine and cuisine, Portugal is a cyclist's dream. Here we travel far from the beaten track through rugged countryside, discovering a slower way of live.

A world away from Portugal’s bustling cities and coastal resorts, we have found a hidden gem in the remote, wild Côa Valley. Almost completely untouched by tourism, this is an authentic and welcoming part of the country that few experience.
