Lisbon to Ericeira

47 mi · 1h 43m — by Leif Riksheim

This route trades the efficient A8 motorway for the legendary N247, one of Portugal's most iconic driving roads. You will experience a perfect variety of driving dynamics: fast coastal sweepers near Cascais, technical hairpins through the cool Sintra forests, and narrow cliffside roads near Azenhas do Mar. The route adds roughly an hour of pure driving enjoyment with constant ocean views and changing terrain.
