«Galicia and Minho Wine Region
Culturally diverse, geographically varied and awash in tradition and history, Spain’s quiet Galician countryside and northern Portugal’s Minho wine region are perfect for bicycling with Backroads. Between the medieval pilgrimage site of Santiago de Compostela and Guimarães, the birthplace of Portugal in 1143, we visit historic landmarks, pedal over eucalyptus-covered hills, encounter friendly locals on horse-drawn carts, and explore the region’s stunning tableaus, ranging from rugged alpine terrain to the lush misty coastline. Along the way, sample fresh seafood and overnight in grand paradors and pousadas brimming with hospitality.»
Alojamento:
Pousada de Santa Maria do Bouro (Amares)

«Pastoral Alentejo to Seaside Sintra
From countryside to dramatic windswept coastline, the Portuguese landscape is an untouched gem, its raw beauty and authenticity both stunning and timeless. Our Backroads biking trip captures the region’s rich culture and unspoiled terrain as we pedal over rolling hills marked by vineyards and groves of cork and olive trees. Ride through small villages, witness the rituals of daily rural life, and end in the regal coastal town of Sintra. With its lush misty hillsides, magnificent castles and exotic gardens, Sintra was once the summer retreat of Portuguese royalty — a sparkling jewel in Portugal’s historic crown.»
