Virtual Ride on the Camino Route: Águeda to Porto (with Aveiro Detour)

Welcome to the channel!

On this channel, I aim to create inspiring indoor cycling and running videos featuring beautiful Portuguese scenery. From virtual rides to immersive workout experiences, I started this channel out of gratitude for the incredible places I’ve had the privilege to explore and a desire to share that beauty with others. You can experience the thrill of cycling through breathtaking locations from the comfort of your home. I hope you enjoy!

This video is part of my personal project to cycle the entire Portuguese Camino de Santiago—section by section—through the winter and early spring. It’s something I started to help fight off seasonal blues and to share a meaningful, real-time look at this historic route with others.

Today’s ride follows the Camino path from Águeda to Porto, with a short detour to Aveiro before rejoining the official route. Along the way, I pass through quiet forests, vineyards, tiny towns, and more than a few unexpected turns—including a flooded trail and an improvised bridge crossing.
