Itinerary description

Fantastic way to finish 2016. Me and my friend rided the 100km separating Sintra to Baleal, near Peniche, on the west coast of Portugal, to celebrate the new year. This bike trip took us 9h30 (6h30 riding and 3h of stops).

We went always (except the beginning near Sintra) as close as possible to the sea. I used Google Earth and other Wikiloc trails to prepare the route and all the dirt trails on the cliff tops are rideable with a mountain bike. They'll surely provide you with some unforgettable views over the Atlantic..

See you on the road!

    Tem muita estrada ou é maioritariamente trilho?

    Eu diria que é um 50-50, se bem me lembro. Mas se fizer zoom dá para perceber que tem bastante trilho, visto que tentei minimizar a parte de estrada.
