This annual cycling event takes place entirely within Portugal's scenic Serra da Estrela Natural Park, offering cyclists an unparalleled opportunity to explore some of the country’s most iconic landscapes and challenging terrain.
The route begins in Manteigas, a charming town that serves as the heart of the Granfondo headquarters for this edition.
