Womens Weekend MTB

Women´s MTB Weekend getaway

Overview

Join me for an inspiring weekend of mountain biking, adventure, and connection in the stunning forests of Bussaco- Luso in Portugal. Designed exclusively for women, this experience welcomes riders looking to improve their skills, gain confidence on the trails, and enjoy two days of guided riding in a supportive and encouraging environment. Whether you're aiming to refine your technique or simply want to spend a weekend exploring beautiful singletracks with like-minded riders, this retreat offers the perfect balance of progression, fun, and relaxation.

Throughout the weekend, you'll receive professional coaching focused on bike handling, trail confidence, line choice, and riding technique, with plenty of opportunities to put your new skills into practice on a variety of local trails. Off the bike, we'll slow the pace to enjoy the natural beauty of the Bussaco Forest, share meals together, capture unforgettable moments, and create lasting friendships within the women's mountain biking community. More than just a riding weekend, this is a chance to challenge yourself, celebrate your progress, and become part of a growing community of women who inspire and support one another on and off the trails.
