[QUOTE="Carioca, post: 1205017, member: 112958"] Hello, I am from Calgary, Alberta, Canada My friend and I will arrive in Lisbon in the last week of April 2024. We are planning to bike from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela. The duration of the bike tour will be around 15 to 18 days with approximately 45km/day biking. We are both over 70 years old. Route: Caminho Portugues da Costa: Lisboa – Santiago de Compostela Please find below three links from three different sources/Apps: App called AllTraills: [URL]https://www.alltrails.com/trail/portugal/lisboa--6/caminho-portugues-da-costa-lisboa-a-santiago-de-compostela[/URL] App called Komoot: [URL]https://www.komoot.com/tour/1387071598[/URL] And the third link from EuroVelo: [URL]https://euroveloportugal.com/pt/route/eurovelo-1[/URL] The starting day of our biking tour will be around April 27th, 2024 after having a tour to Lisbon. We initially sought of doing a bike tour in a self-guided tour. After some researches we decided that we would have more freedom to travel on our own. We could stay some additional days in some villages in case we decide to enjoy and relax instead of a rigid self-guided tour. [B]SUMMARY OF OUR BIKE TOUR:[/B] Arrival in Lisbon with two bikes from Calgary, Alberta, Canada: April 25th, 2024 Duration of the biking tour: 15 to 18 days Starting location and date: Lisbon, around April 27th, 2024 Destination and date: Santiago de Compostela, arrival date around May 14th, 2024 Return from Santiago de Compostela to Lisbon: Maybe by train with the bikes. We are planning to stay in Airbnb’s or hostels for most of our trip. We would like to bike in trails or roads that are very safe to ride, not too much traffic due to safety, include beautiful sceneries and historical places to visit. I would like to have a bike route uploaded in my IPhone (GPS file) where I can see the distances and elevations. [B]I HAVE THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:[/B] [LIST] [*]Can you please provide information on how to store our bikes in Lisbon? [*]Do you have any suggestions or comments regarding the three options of routes describe above? [*]In our return from Santiago de Compostela to Lisbon by train, can we travel in Portugal with the bikes without the bike bags? The bike bags will be stored in Lisbon during the bike tour [*]Do you have any suggestions of places to stop for overnight sleep or maybe stay extra days exploring the areas? [*]Do you have any suggestions of places where we can have sea food along the route? [*]Any suggestions of Apps that are good for this type of bike tour besides Alltrails and Komoot? [*]There is a ferry crossing along the way; do we need to book the ferry in advance? [*]Should I bring a hybrid bike or a mountain bike? I have one TREK Multitrack 7700 hybrid bike and one GIANT AULUXX FLUIDFORM ANTHEM mountain bike. [*]Your response is highly appreciated. [*]Regards, [*]Rogerio [*]Calgary, Alberta, Canada [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
