Following pickup from your hotel in Coimbra, we’ll head towards Viseu, the starting point of the activity.
Spend your day immersed in a bike tour along an ancient railway track with a 130-year-old history that’s now been transformed into a bicycle-friendly Ecopista.
This is a self-guided, 49.2 km, linear route that’s mostly downhill. You’ll pass through apple groves, vineyards, and alongside the stunning Rio Dão, finally ending in Santa Comba Dão. Here, we’ll round up all the participants for the return journey to Coimbra.
Explore all of the old Ecopista stations and stopovers, including the noteworthy Torredeita Station, home to an ancient locomotive. The views are splendid, with the north abundant in cork, chestnut and oak trees, interspersed with some farming fields and vineyards. The southern part is known for its vast wild strawberry bushes and the impressive Granjal bridge spanning the Aguieira reservoir.
