Portugal N2 and Douro valley / N222

Post by ErikGustav2 »

Oktober 21-30 this year, I did a trip in Portugal.
Exploring some famous roads and the surroundings.

* Algarve- Chaves via N2 (6 days)
* N222 through Douro wally (2 days)
* Back to Algarve (2 days)


I publish a link to a photo collection from the first 6 days.
Old school man with standard photos and no (Youtube) video.

I have a story written about this trip. But it is not in English.
Maybe some dark evening, I will translate...

Anyhow:
Here is the link. I hope it works

I will ad pictures from the Douro Valley part "soon"

Here are the pictures from the Douro Valley part of the trip added in a separate album.

I will return to Douro, when it is more green. (May ?)
But avoid June- Aug that is peak tourist season

That is a good choice.
Nice weather, nice roads, beautiful nature and friendly people.
And if you are into green lining, there are a lot of possibility.

The season is long. Especially in the Algarve region.
Avoid June-Aug. Hot weather and a lot of tourists.

If you prefer to rent a bike. You can do it form Hertz in Faro
