Cycling season
Mild winters make Spain a year-round cycling destination, though summer heat in central Spain can be intense.
About this route
Spain and Portugal share the Iberian Peninsula and a growing cycling community. The Algarve coast in southern Portugal has become one of Europe's premier winter training destinations, attracting teams and individual riders from across the continent. Lisbon and Madrid are connected by road through the Extremadura region, a sparsely populated area with quiet roads perfect for long-distance riding.
The Iberian cycling scene has boomed in recent years, with the Volta a Portugal and the Vuelta a Espana sharing riders and prestige. Northern Portugal's Douro Valley and Spain's Galicia offer lush green cycling through vineyard-covered hills, while the Alentejo's open plains provide vast, traffic-free riding. Cross-border events like the Ruta de la Plata attract riders from both nations, and the growing gravel scene in central Iberia has opened up new routes along ancient Roman roads.
buycycle provides efficient shipping across the Iberian Peninsula, with transit times of just two to four business days between major Spanish and Portuguese cities. Professional packing and full coverage are included, ensuring your bike arrives in perfect condition whether it is heading to the Algarve for winter training or to Madrid for a Gran Fondo.
