cycling the Senda Litoral

[sandrider]

Hi
I am going to be cycling the Senda Litoral in October and i am looking for a copy of a gpx file of the route

Hi sandrider. I cannot help you with the gpx file. But I just wanted to say two things. You might not need one much, just keep the ocean to the left! And if you do find one make sure it is the cycle route. It differs a fair bit from the walking route and for good reason. A lot of the walk is on non cycle friendly boardwalk and on beaches, which I imagine would be a struggle. The separate bike route does exist though, I did see quite a few bikers when there.

Not an endorsement but if you want GPX files for any camino, check the Caminoways website first. They usually have a map with a downloadable gpx file for part or all of the routes.

Hi there, quick one - did you end up cycling Senda Litoral? Looking to do the same so if you have any tips etc, I'd be forever grateful. For example, where did you start/finish or fly to? I'm from the UK so probably will be different but any pointers would be great. Thank you

@sandrider hasn't returned to the Forum since September 2019. Others here may be able to help.

Fly to Porto and home from Santiago is an obvious route depending on your home airport. www.rome2rio.com isn't as good as it used to be but is still useful for logistical planning
