Active Escape Portugal – Marathons, Wellness & Nature Trails

Portugal is an inspiring destination for active travelers seeking the perfect balance between sport, relaxation and lifestyle. This journey begins in Lisbon, where guests can take part in an internationally renowned marathon or HYROX event, combined with curated recovery moments. Accommodation is set in a wellness-focused hotel (4* or 5*) featuring spa facilities and tailored treatments designed to relieve muscle tension and support post-event recovery. Dining experiences highlight healthy Portuguese gastronomy, combining fresh local ingredients with a wellbeing-driven approach.

The program continues north to Porto and the Douro Valley, shifting the focus to outdoor adventure and nature. Guided cycling routes through vineyard landscapes, scenic hiking trails along the Douro River and optional trail-running experiences allow guests to stay active while discovering one of Europe’s most authentic regions. Additionally, private river cruises and small wine tastings can be included to provide moments of relaxation between activities.

This Active Escape is flexible by design and can easily be adapted to focus on one single destination/city, with programs ranging from 3 to 4 nights, depending on travel goals and sports calendars.
