Enduro

  When: 29 October – 05 November

  Where: Tábua (Serra da Estrela) | Portugal

  Level: From beginner to advanced

100% ENDURO

Oldskool enduro, hard enduro or fast tracks; our guides will set out the right environment for every type of rider. With Bruce and Tony each specialised in a different area around Tabua, we can offer you a trip with a lot of variation and different kind of single tracks. Andre owns a motocross track only 5 kilometers away from our hotel. Here you can train your mx skills and/or have fun after a day of riding enduro.

For the novice rider we suggest to try our Tabua Deluxe - Rally Raid version first. The rides are less technical/physical and for the true beginner we’ve experienced that this version is better to get more confidence on the bike. It’s also a more relaxed way to enjoy the area and have fun. Which in the end is the most important thing!

The right motorbike for the trip:

  • KTM EXC 125/200/250/300/350/450/500 (max!)
  • Husqvarna TE 125/250/300/350/450/501 (max!)
  • Or any other simular models from brands like Honda/Kawa/Yamaha/Sherco/Rieju/Gasgas/Beta/etc…

 

R4 Moto's - Official Husqvarna Dealer - is joining us.

R4 Moto’s is the place where Marijn, the organizer, is working as a mechanic. With his boss joining him on this adventure, they'll be able to give you an even better technical assistance and more specific advice. Although Husqvarna is our house brand, we welcome every brand of motorcycle as we all share the same passion and that is riding motorcycles!

Our Base Camp

At the centre of this journey is hotel Quinta do Rabaçal, a small piece of heaven next to the Mondego river, completely off-grid. Run by Peter, a true biker in heart and soul, this quinta or farm is the perfect place to rest after a long  day on the bike. Onsite you have a 300 square gym/yoga area by the river, BBQ area, cocktail bar and chill out space, mountain bikes and kayaks/paddle boards, a large infinity pool with outside jacuzzi, spa suite with wood fired sauna, as well as an underground bunker club for parties and film nights. And check this, we have the whole site for ourselves! No better place to crack a beer by the campfire after a long day riding!
