PORTUGAL ROUTE · DEPARTING FROM SEVILLE
From the golden Algarve to the light of Lisbon
Portugal is a paradise for camper travel, and from Seville it’s right next door. This route takes you along the golden cliffs of the Algarve, with dreamy beaches and a laid-back feel, heading up through the Alentejo to unforgettable Lisbon and magical Sintra.
You start in Lagos and Ponta da Piedade, continue to Sagres and Cabo de São Vicente —the edge of the known world—, swim at Praia da Marinha, discover the museum-city of Évora and finish in Lisbon. Good roads, quality campgrounds and miles of coastline to spend the night facing the Atlantic.
