This exceptional coastal bikepacking route seamlessly connects Portugal's sun-drenched Algarve with the fiery heart of Andalusia in Spain. The journey kicks off in historic Faro, tracking past the tidal lagoons of Ria Formosa and through the unique sand-paved village of El Rocío straight into the vibrant avenues of Seville.
