North Western Spain and Northern Portugal

Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia, Castilla and Leon and Northern Portugal

A motorcycle journey with great twisty roads

For most this trip begins in the UK with ride to a ferry terminal and overnight crossing to Santander. Britany ferries offer sailings on Friday departing at 19:00 at sea and arriving in Santander at 08:00 Saturday. The tour will arrive back at Santander in time for the Sunday 14:00 sailing to Portsmouth. This arrives back in the UK at 17:30 Monday. Alternative ports are available including Bilbao that might better fit for some. The stated routes begin and end the tour at Santander.

This motorcycle tour visits many national parks including Picos de Europa, Redes, Las Ubiñas-La Mesa, Somiedo as we pass through Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia, Castilla and Leon in Northwestern Spain and onwards into Northern Portugal.

The roads used on this journey are twisty and at times quite technical and as such this is not a tour for inexperienced riders but well suited for intermediate riders who want to improve their skills and experienced riders who want to ride great twisty roads.

Half board at all hotels in Spain and Portugal is INCLUDED but the costs EXCLUDE the ferry crossing. Budget for £1000 to cover ferry and UK based accommodation that might be needed if travelling from there.
