Head for Santiago de Compostela, a Catholic Mecca and a popular destination for pilgrimages and its world-renowned cathedral. Unlike pilgrims, you'll start your cycling tour in Compostela before heading for Portugal to discover the best of the Iberian Peninsula. Around the six stopover towns, immerse yourself in the pleasures of the Atlantic coast, where the seaside and its culinary delights are never far away!
You'll be charmed by Pontevedra and its human-scale city, a world benchmark in terms of sustainable development and accessibility. Once on the Portuguese side, Viana de Castelo opens up like a gateway to the ocean, from the top of its Basílica de Santa Luzia with its grandiose panorama. We'll finish on a high note by heading for Porto, where you can enjoy the alcohol of the same name, and the memories of two weeks of cycling in which the sacred and the pleasurable were one and the same!
6 STAGE CITIES: this way of traveling lets you put down your suitcase and go at your own pace. Your itinerary, designed in loops around six stopover towns, limits the number of trips you need to make, leaving you free to discover and enjoy the places you get off at. Make the most of it!
