▪ 2nd Edition

GRANDIAGONAL 2027

After an amazing first edition, GRANDIAGONAL is back in 2027 for its second year.
The story got off to the best possible start in 2026, and from now on, during the third week of June every year, GRANDIAGONAL celebrates bikepacking and Portugal, crossing the entire country from end to end - a country that welcomes in such a special way every rider who takes on this challenge.
The start will be in Caminha on June 13th (Sunday), with the finish line closing on June 19th (Saturday) in Vila Real de Santo António.
Riders have a time limit of 6 days and 12 hours to complete the 1,000 km of the entire route without any support.

But GRANDIAGONAL its much more than a bikepacking adventure and riders can enjoy a program that goes far beyond the days of the main challenge.
All information about the GRANDIAGONAL 2027 is available on the official website:

REGISTRATIONS open on September 10th at 12:00 p.m. (GMT)

The Municipality of Manteigas is one of the main partners of GRANDIAGONAL by EVOC
Nestled at the foot of the breathtaking Zêzere Glacier Valley, Manteigas is one of the main gateways to the heart of the Serra da Estrela mountains.
The houses, mostly painted white, contrast with the trees surrounding this mountain village, where an excellent and diverse range of lodging options invites you to stay a while to discover and enjoy everything the Serra da Estrela has to offer those who love nature and adventure. Manteigas is the starting point for a network of mountain roads and hiking trails that wind deep into the heart of the Estrela, revealing some of the most breathtaking scenery of Portugal’s only high-mountain destination.
In the first edition of Grandiagonal by Evoc, Manteigas hosted the 2nd Checkpoint of the challenge, where Alexandre and Catarina were on hand 24 hours a day to welcome and encourage all the riders before they tackled the challenge of climbing the Torre.
Whether at the Free Bivy Space, provided by the municipality, or at the town’s many hotels, many riders chose Manteigas to rest and recharge their energy before conquering the highest point in mainland Portugal.
Grandiagonal by Evoc bids farewell to Manteigas with a big thank you.
See you in 2027.

There are roads that seem endless and landscapes that make you forget the destination.

Through the lens of photographer Agnelo Quelhas Photography, Grandiagonal by EVOC reveals an authentic, lesser-known Portugal, where every bend brings a new discovery and every kilometre tells a story waiting to be shared.

It was with hugs, smiles and emotions beyond words that we closed the finish line of Grandiagonal by EVOC in Vila Real de Santo António

It was a journey of 1,000 kilometres filled with discovery, resilience and unforgettable encounters. Landscapes that will stay in our memories, moments that will take time to fully absorb, and stories that will continue to be told long after crossing the finish line.

We set off from Caminha with a dream. We arrived in the Algarve with our hearts full.

Our deepest thanks go to all the volunteers, staff, partners and friends who made this adventure possible. Above all, thank you to the true protagonists: every rider who embraced this challenge and set out on this extraordinary journey.

Because some journeys end only to make way for new beginnings.
