Gita in bici di un giorno da Rio de Mouro a Cascais

Get ready for a fantastic ride from Rio de Mouro to the coastal town of Cascais! You’ll kick off in Rio de Mouro, a lively town just outside Lisbon that’s known for its friendly vibe and easy train connections. From there, you’ll pedal mostly along quiet roads, with the occasional stretch of cycleways and village streets.

The route takes you through a mix of neighborhoods and rolling countryside—there’s a decent bit of climbing (about 317 meters up) but even more enjoyable downhill as you head towards the ocean. Keep an eye out for some classic Portuguese paving stones along the way and soak in the tranquil scenery; much of the route is free from heavy traffic.

As you arrive in Cascais, you’ll be greeted by breezy Atlantic views and the charm of this historic fishing town, popular for its beaches, cafes, and tiled streets. Perfect for grabbing an espresso or just sitting by the waterfront and relaxing after your ride.
