Overview

Cycle the eastern end of Portugal’s famous Algarve region on a short break, riding a loop from the market town of Loulé to the Spanish border and back. Your rides will take in the best of the region, including traditional towns, castles and valleys laden with orange trees. This part of the Algarve is less busy than the central Algarve, with mostly quiet roads and relatively flat terrain that is great for cycling.
