Walking & Cycling in the Algarve

Algarve Holidays

Located in Portugal’s southernmost region is the beautiful Algarve coastline. Known for its whitewashed fishing villages, golden stretches of sand and scalloped turquoise-fringed bays, the region is blessed with a warm, sun-drenched climate nearly all year round, making it perfect for walking & cycling. Its rugged coastlines stretch for over 60km, from the Moorish old town of Faro along the west to the spectacular fishing village of Cacela Velha in the east. Discover this enchanting area of Portugal for yourself on our Algarve cycling & walking holidays.

On our Walking Portugal’s Coast and Beaches trip, discover the most hidden shores that have remained largely untouched by tourism. Beginning in the picture-perfect town of Vila Nova de Milfontes, this Algarve walking holiday takes you along quiet cliff trails in the region of Alentejo, that only the locals know towards the best beaches, authentic villages and sleepy traditional fishing towns.

Another Algarve holiday that allows you to explore Europe’s most southwesterly point at Cabo de Sao Vicente is our Self-Guided Walking the Algarve’s South West trip. Take a tranquil walk through the Carrapateira and Sinceira valleys, walk among eucalyptus trees and citrus orchards to Vila do Bispo and end the adventure overlooking Sagres’ impressive fortress, for an Algarve walking holiday to remember.

A2z travel and Exodus exceeded my expectations!!! Portugal is an amazing country and our tour guides took us to spots we definately would have missed if we traveled on our own. This was my first guided tour- I was nervous it would be very basic and boring. Our trip was the farthest thing from boring! We hiked, toured, ate and ate and ate some more, drank great wine and port and more unique spirits. So many laughs shared with very fun people! I will go in more trips with Luis and his team of exceptional guides. If you are on the fence-go for it!!!! I will return to Portugal for sure. Thanks Joao, Carlos, Luis and Hanne and the amazing women on the tour! Shawn H North Vancouver, BC Canada

This trip was the ultimate de-stressor. Fantastic walks along deserted beaches and cliff top paths with breathtaking views of hidden bays and waves crashing against the rocks, expertly led by Luis and Alex who could not have done more to make this such a fabulous and fun holiday. The accommodation was well chosen and of a good standard and with the help of our guides, we ate in style every evening. We would highly recommend this trip and are pleased to have had yet another excellent Exodus experience.
