Overview

Marooned 1,360km west of the Portuguese coast and 1,925km southeast of Newfoundland, Canada, the archipelago of Açores shelters a world of lush subtropical gorges, dazzling crater lakes and towering volcanic ridges. The Azores is a cluster of nine volcanic islands that exists as an autonomous region of Portugal. This cycling tour offers the experience of exploring its shipwreck-riddled coastline and jagged crater ridges.
