The Campus

The 3rd Joaquim Apolo Festival is coming to Quinta do Lago! Organised by the Almancilense Cycling School, with the support of Quinta do Lago and The Campus, this cycling event brings together young riders, cycling schools, licensed athletes and amateur cyclists for a morning of racing on the resort’s roads.

Held on Portugal’s national public holiday, the festival welcomes participants across a wide range of age groups, from U7 to Masters, with an OPEN category also available for riders without a racing licence. A great opportunity for the local community to get involved and experience the excitement of road cycling.

The programme features three road courses inside Quinta do Lago: the Schools Circuit (1.6 km per lap), a 9 km individual time trial and the U15 road race (two laps, 19 km).
