Rossio hums around you; the guide checks the Bosch-assist motors, and within an hour the city thins beneath the train’s whistle as you head to Sintra — a town that climbs like a storybook from the forest.

Charge and check the e-bike
Start with a full battery and confirm assistance levels with the guide—Bosch systems extend range but don’t replace pedaling on Sintra’s steeper pitches.
