During this experience, you will explore the Barrocal region, the Ria Formosa Natural Park, discover traditional customs, rural arts that still persist in the countryside, historical sites, and much more.

The Algarve is divided into three main regions: the South and West Coast facing the Atlantic Ocean, the Barrocal, and the Serra, which connects the Algarve to the Alentejo Region.
Your Walking Short Break begins in Portimão, a city with strong fishing traditions and beautiful golden beaches. The second night is spent in Albufeira, another traditional fishing town, famous for its dramatic cliffs and stunning beaches. The third night is booked in Faro, the capital of the Algarve, where you can explore its rich cultural heritage. Highlights include the historic old town, the ancient Lethes Theatre, the Carmo Church, and the typical Algarve cuisine, classified as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.

The walking experience starts in the Barrocal, the transition zone between the coast and the mountains, known as the main agricultural supplier of the Algarve. Continuing towards the south coast, we walk through the Ria Formosa Natural Park, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Portugal, following its lagoon system and salt marsh (Sapal) areas, where it is possible to observe a remarkable diversity of birds and wildlife in their natural habitat.

During this Short Break Walking Holiday in the Algarve, you will have the opportunity to experience local products and traditions, admire the natural environment, hike through beautiful paths and gentle hills, and connect with the local people.
Certainly, an unforgettable experience you will cherish for a lifetime.
