Algarve Holidays

The southernmost region of Portugal, the beautiful Algarve, is known for whitewashed fishing villages, stretches of golden sand and turquoise-fringed bays. It is also blessed with a warm, sun-drenched climate nearly all year round. The rugged coastlines here stretch for more than 37mi (60km), from the Moorish old town of Faro in the west to the fishing village of Cacela Velha in the east − discover this enchanting area of Portugal for yourself on our Algarve cycling and walking holidays.

On our Walking Portugal’s Wild Algarve trip, discover hidden shores that have remained largely untouched by tourism. Beginning in the picture-perfect town of Monchique, this Algarve walking holiday takes you along quiet cliff trails towards idyllic beaches, authentic villages and sleepy 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.

Lyne Cloutier Walking Portugal's Wild Algarve

This trip to the coast of Portugal was the best. I have travelled all over the world on different trips and this one ranks at the very top of my list. The scenery, the daily hikes, the hotels and the food – all wonderful. We were fortunate to have spectacular weather. I highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to experience truly amazing scenery and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Just returned from a fantastic week exploring the beautiful, flower covered mountains and stunning coastline of western Algarve.
Francisco and Rafael were wonderful guides sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm for the local culture, history and especially nature and its conservation. … all with good humour and patience.
There was a great mix of walking and visiting local artisans. Also the food was delicious!
