E-Bike Arrábida
Discover one of Portugal's most stunning natural parks. This tour is the perfect blend of medieval heritage, idyllic vineyards, and the raw beauty of the Atlantic coast.
The Experience
Our adventure begins in Lisbon. Whether we take a comfortable train ride or a private transfer, we head to Palmela for a day of total immersion in nature and local culture, delivered with our signature personal touch.
The Itinerary
-
Palmela Castle: Our first stop is the imposing medieval castle. We’ll pause for coffee and your first gastronomic experience: the famous Azeitão Cheese or the sweet Torta de Azeitão. On clear days, the views are breathtaking, reaching the Tagus and Sado rivers, and the Arrábida and Sintra mountains.
-
Barris Valley and Vineyards: We cycle through the idyllic Vale de Barris, crossing dirt paths through vineyards and pasture fields until we reach Vila Nogueira de Azeitão.

Conquering Arrábida: We head toward the majestic mountains, where you can choose between two unforgettable routes:
-
The Mountain Route: Ride along high-altitude roads with dramatic views over the Atlantic.
-
The Coastal Route: Stay close to the azure blue sea, with an irresistible invitation for a swim.
-
-
Flexible Lunch Options: To ensure the best experience, lunch is flexible and can be enjoyed in one of three iconic locations depending on the group's preference:
-
Portinho da Arrábida: A stunning meal right by the sea.
-
Setúbal: Famous for the freshest grilled fish, located a stone’s throw from the traditional fish market.
