Cycling The Santiago’s Way

Atlantic Coast


There are a number of routes to Santiago de Compostela that pilgrims have followed for centuries. Some are less famous than others and the Portuguese Atlantic Way, while not the best known, is renowned for its beauty and tranquility, offering riders spectacular coastal scenery along the way.

The Portuguese Coastal Way or Caminho da Costa is a stunning easy to moderate alternative route to Santiago de Compostela. Doing the pilgrimage on a bike also allows us to cover much more ground than is possible on foot.

The Portuguese Way is approximately 241km. We will be cherry picking the best sections for your enjoyment.

This bike tour starts in the colorful UNESCO city of Porto in Portugal and will take us to charming seaside towns and villages in Northern Portugal and Galicia. The routes pass through Esposende, Caminha, Baiona, Pontevedra, Caldas Dos Reis and Padron, to end in the Square of Obradoiro and the colossal baroque cathedral where the remains of the apostle Santiago lie.

The ancient paths we will follow are centuries old and Queen Isabel of Portugal herself is said to have traveled the same route in the 13th century. Some of the towns and villages are home to magnificent Baroque and Romanesque churches and these, together with the monuments and crosses along the way, help to tell the story of this less-trodden route, all the while preparing you for your final destination of Santiago de Compostela – where, on arrival, we will appreciate why so many have followed these routes over the many centuries before us.
