While it is unarguably difficult to leave Lisbon behind, an amazing journey awaits those who dare head north on the last section of EuroVelo 1. The Atlantic coming ashore becomes another member of your party, on an endless offer of ever so diverse landscapes. The route crosses plenty of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, leading the rider on rolling roads, through amazing villages bursting with colours, boisterous people and the fragrant smells of delicious food being prepared.
