Percurso Touring Bike Rota Vicentina ®Photo: Rota Vicentina
The Touring Bike complements the Rota Vicentina MTB trails, which also includes a network of over 1000 km for mountain biking, anda also the "Off the Beaten Path" Gravel route.
It was created as a response to numerous requests for a route between the Walking Trails (Historical Way, Fishermen’s Trail e Circular Routes) and the airports of Lisbon and Faro.
Connections or intersections with the different walking and mountain bike trails of the Rota Vicentina is ensured at various points between Santiago do Cacém and Lagos.
The total length is just over 500 km and although it can be divided personally for each cyclist, it is usually divided into 10 steps of about 50 km each. This trail includes mainly cycling trails (particularly in and around Lisbon and Faro) and roads or paths with reduced car traffic.
From its inception there was a desire to establish a balance between the coast and the interior, providing numerous incursions into areas rarely visited, both along the coast and away from it.
