Curvatos has several connections to cycling: it is an important waypoint on Route 62, the site of a crossing of the Ribeira de Curvatos on the black mountain bike route from AlmodĂ´var, and a setting for historic competitions. When planning your trip, it is helpful to distinguish route information from dated stages: one provides guidance on route points, while the other places individual races in time.
Route connections and directions
Curvatos is an important waypoint on Route 62. Cafés and public toilets are mentioned in connection with the route. This links the town’s role in the route to practical guidance along the way and can help with planning a ride. Check whether these facilities are available before setting out.
Another specific route detail comes from the black mountain bike route from Almodôvar: it crosses the Ribeira de Curvatos. This gives two different kinds of guidance: Route 62 presents Curvatos as a waypoint with facilities, while the mountain bike route identifies a specific water crossing. Comparing the route details can help you distinguish between a place’s role and a particular feature along the route.
Accommodation and local address
This means you can take guest services into account when planning your stay. Corvatos Casas do Monte offers its guests bicycle rental, which is linked to the accommodation.
Padaria dos Corvatos is a bakery associated with Curvatos. If you would like to include the address in your travel plans, check the current opening hours before visiting. The name provides a specific point of interest for the culinary aspect of your trip.
Historic stages: dates and figures
On 28 February 2026, the first stage of the XVIII Volta ao Concelho de AlmodĂ´var passed through Curvatos over a distance of 129 kilometres. The XVIII Volta ao Concelho de AlmodĂ´var was a cycling event in the Concelho de AlmodĂ´var. It took place from 28 February to 1 March 2026 and was organised by local organisations and official partners. 28 February marks the day of the first stage, while the period through 1 March places the event as a whole in context.
An earlier connection is the Campeonato Ibérico Ciclismo Masters e Elites Amadores, which took place on 16 July 2017. The route plan lists Curvatos at kilometre 129.4. This figure indicates a position on the route plan, not the length of the competition. The 129 kilometres of the first stage in 2026 serve a different purpose: they give the length of the stage. The figures therefore refer to two different things—the length of a stage and the kilometre mark at which Curvatos appears on the 2017 route plan.
