The mainfocus on this tours isn´t on very mountainbike-experienced riders, but on the midclass sportsman & -woman. Nevertheless this is outdoor sport and requires – sometimes more, sometimes less – fitness and experience. Selecting a tour that doesn´t fit with your abilities isn´t fun for anybody. Not for you, neither for me or the rest of our group. The tour categories will help you to find the right tour for you. For any further doubts do not hesitate to ask. There is the right tour for everybody

Depend on the requirements of every single tour I can provide bikes with full suspension and hydraulic disc breaks or bikes with slimer tires and racks

Cascais Bike Escape
3 h Mountainbike-Tour, flat, 25 km, 250 Hm
Force: OO
Bike-Skills: O
Parede, where our tour starts, is located between Lisbon and Cascais. We got a few kilometres through the villages to get used to the bikes before we reach the protected area of Quinta do Pisao. On dirtroads and a few easy singletrails we cross this area covered by wide fields, pine, olive and eucalyptus forests in the beautyful scenery between the natural park of Sintra and the ocean. Once we are back on the road we are on our way down to the coast, where we end up with smoove crusing along the Atlantic along the beaches of Estoril and Sao Pedro. This is a 25 km ride, a everybodys tour as long as you consider yourself as more or less sporty. You should know to cycle, special bike skills are not necessary. Nevertheless biking is an outdoor sport activity and we interact with traffic. How carefully we ever are, there is always a remaining risk. Participation is on own responsibility! Helmets are mandatory! | ||

5 h Mountainbike-Tour, 40 km 500 Hm
force: OO
Bike-Skills: OO
A
real highlight of Lisbon's surroundings are the natural and cultural
area of Sintra and the breathtaking coast nearby. Serra de Sintra, the
mountains between Sintra in the north and Cascais in the south got a
microclimate that provides a plenty of special vegetation in this
evergreen natural resort. In the west it´s bordered by Cabo da Roca,
Europe's westend. High cliffs fall down immediately into the rough
Atlantic here, what formed a outstanding landscape. Next exit: America. A
class of it own! |

| Santuario da Peninha & the Atlantic
5 h Mountainbike-Tour, 45 km 600 Hm
force: OOO
Bike-Skills: OO
Where Serra de Sintra and Rio Tejo meet the Atlantic we find breathtaking views and hidden beaches everywhere. Uphill hhrough the dense forests, downhill with an unbeatable view to the Atlantic. Our target is the second highest peak of the mountain range. Maybe one of the toughest tours in Serra de Sintra, but with force and will we got compensated with amazing views! |

Coast Roller
2 h Beach-Tour, flat & easy, 20 km, 100 Hm Force O
Bike Skills: O
Only a few km west of Lisbon the continet ends and meets the rough Atlantic. This is where Cascais and Lisbons beaches are located. This simple tour starts right outside of Lisbon, but easy to acess and leads us all along the beautiful coastline at the end of Rio Tejo. A very easy, but beautyful ride that brings you away from the city rush and calms you down with the salty atlantic waves |    |
