Excursión ciclista de un día de Faro a Albufeira

This scenic ride takes you from the lively city of Faro, capital of Portugal’s sun-soaked Algarve, all the way to the buzzing beach resort of Albufeira. Covering just over 53 km, the route gives you a bit of everything: quiet country roads, a smattering of gravel tracks, and charming towns along the way. Expect gentle rolling hills with about 400 meters of climbing as you pedal inland through orange groves and rural villages, enjoying glimpses of both countryside and coast.

Faro is famous for its atmospheric old town and bustling marina—perfect for a pre-ride coffee. The route keeps you mostly away from busy roads, letting you soak up tranquil rural vibes. While there’s a good mix of paved and unpaved sections (some gravel—nothing too wild, but a hybrid or gravel bike will feel at home), you’ll finish in Albufeira, known for its stunning beaches and lively nightlife. Don’t miss exploring its whitewashed old town or unwinding on the golden sands after your ride!
