There is an Algarve unknown to many, far from the beaches and the crowds. An essentially rural, ancient Algarve, full of history, culture and nature. A territory where tranquillity and isolation prevail. Where people still live to the rhythm of nature's cycles, happy and with few worries. This is the Algarve we want to reveal to you.

Over the course of an 8-day programme in autonomy, we propose a trip on the Via Algarviana, between Alcoutim and Giões, through the Algarve's most unpopulated and oldest region, but one of its most genuine and authentic. The route crosses hills, farmland, river valleys - such as the beautiful Ribeira da Foupana - small mountain villages and allows close contact with the local people who will be our hosts on this adventure. The accommodation is high quality, family-run, the meals home-cooked and the socialising lively and carefree.

We invite you!
