Your adventure will begin by crossing into Valença do Minho, a historic fortified town whose impressive fortress dominates the Minho River and marks the border between Portugal and Spain. From there, you'll join the Ecopista do Rio Minho, a path completely separated from traffic that runs along the river, offering a safe and accessible route for all ages.
Halfway through the ride, you'll arrive in Vila Nova de Cerveira, one of the most charming towns in northern Portugal. Here, you can take a break for refreshments at Praia da Lenta, a quiet river beach located on an island in the Minho, perfect for resting and enjoying the natural surroundings.
Continuing along the Ecopista, surrounded by riverside forests, small beaches, and spectacular views of the river, you'll reach Caminha, where the Miño joins the Atlantic Ocean. This picturesque seaside town, with its historic centre and its privileged location facing the mouth of the river, will be the perfect ending to a comfortable, safe, and ideal route for discovering northern Portugal on an electric bike.
