Grand Fondo Porto Departure

Ride Serra da Estrela, an area of rare landscape beauty, with striking mountain drops, where you can have a deep experience of the silence of the heights.  At 1,993 metres at its highest point in Torre, Serra da Estrela is the perfect sportive challenge. Run the mountains, the plateaus, the valleys, unravelling the myths of the emblematic places.

From Serra da Estrela to Pinhão, cycle in a region where farming is still by far the most important activity, particularly famous for its chestnut production. From hot springs to rural world, countryside, nature, secular traditions and local gastronomy. Stay at The Vintage House, an idyllic riverside location in the authentic heart of the Douro Valley.

The Douro Valley could as easily be called the enchanted valley, such is the beauty and magic that its landscapes offer. The Douro Wine Region Valley is the oldest demarcated wine region in the world. Visit one of the oldest, emblematic and well-known wineries of the Douro region and enjoy a true combination of Douro traditional flavors.

The Douro Wine Region Valley is the oldest demarcated wine region in the world.  This region of schist mountains, with poor, harsh soils, was transformed by the actions of the men who planted the vineyards step by step. End your day, looping across Porto and its tiled buildings, old churches and medieval walls.
