This walking tour is designed to explore the East Algarve's open countryside with pretty villages, historic monuments and recognized natural reserve areas like Ria Formosa. You will explore picturesque villages, located on fertile limestone lands and with a landscape characterized by an abundance of olive, carob, fig and almond trees and a profusion of wildflowers. Each walk is full of colour, plants, wildlife and history and all are different with unique sights. Each day’s walk highlights the contrasting landscape and wildlife of this lovely region. This tour was put together for the enjoyment of those who have a special interest in walking and nature. You’ll see a Portugal you’ve never imagined existed and that you’ll never forget!
Highlights:
♦ The city of Tavira - arguably the Algarve’s most charming town. Fishing boats crowd the river Gilão and layers of history can be seen, from Phoenician excavations through Islamic-decorated doorways to Renaissance and Baroque flourishes.
♦ Algarve Countryside - In the Eastern Algarve the small villages have kept much of their original character providing a quiet and relaxing holiday destination.
♦ Algarve Coastline - Walk close to the coast, and follow tracks and quiet lanes from and to picturesque old fishing villages.
