Dourovallei begeleide e-biketour

Enjoy an authentic adventure through the oldest demarcated wine region in the world - the Douro. Take advantage of the appetiser that this trip will give you to get to know some of the region's most emblematic landscapes, the same ones that will frame your days in the Douro region. You certainly won't be indifferent to the Douro River Gorge, over 200 metres high. Once you've arrived in Miranda do Douro, a town in the region, take the opportunity to relax in this town with its very own characteristics, whitewashed houses and narrow cobbled streets.

• Welcome dinner with drinks - included

Your cycling experience through the Douro region begins in the direction of the Douro International Nature Reserve, where wildlife combined with exhilarating landscapes will guarantee you a memorable start to your tour. 

There are many animals that populate this plateau: wild boar, goats and cattle, and even the occasional Iberian wolf that wanders through the tranquillity of this reserve. Let yourself be accompanied by the flight of more than 170 species of birds, among the most striking being the golden eagle or the Egyptian vulture.

• Light picnic - included

In maintaining the authenticity of your experience, part of today's stage will take you along a disused railway line. Here, at your own rhythm, you'll be able to enjoy an ecological trail, which will be divided by woods, forests and some fields that favour the typical produce of the region. On your way to Torre do Moncorvo, where you will be hosted at the end of the day, you will be accompanied by extensive fields with olive and almond trees (which, depending on the time of year, colour this region with white). As you pass through the various villages, take the opportunity to socialise with the shepherds, who, in keeping with the image of the region, warmly welcome each one of their visitors. Your experiences for today will only end at the place where you will be staying, a guest house, where you will be welcomed like another member of the family. Take the opportunity to sample the locally produced liqueurs.

• Light picnic - included
• Dinner at the hotel - Included

You're now halfway through your adventure in the Douro region and today you'll finally have the company of the Douro on your ride. The region's escarpments will present you with breath-taking landscapes, but the pure air of these areas will "force" you to take a deeper breath. This region known as the "Terra Quente" (hot land) owes this adjective to its very fertile lands, which combine a unique soil and climate and have an excellent production of fruit, wine and olives, which allow for the production of one of the best olive oils in the world. The gastronomic authenticity that you can enjoy during your journey today will be on offer at dinner. Savour the region's delicacies, especially the cheeses, sausages, baked bread and olive oil, homemade oranges and wine. In addition to the richness of the land, the night sky is one of the clearest you're ever likely to see, so don't miss out on a night walk, which will help you digest the region's delicacies sheltered by the stars that dazzle the Transmontano sky.

• Light picnic included with a little surprise courtesy of Authentic Trails
