West Algarve - Carvoeiro
This tour is based in Carvoeiro, a picturesque Portuguese resort town that is set amidst a stunning coastline, and makes for a fantastic holiday destination.
The West Algarve has spectacular cliffs and maritime scenery, and its varied geology produced a rich range of landscapes, from volcanic hills to dramatic limestone escarpments. This diversity is complemented by the local flora and fauna that flourishes in its mild sunny winters and long hot summers. All this, combined, makes walking here fascinating.
The programmed walks are designed to offer a good mix of coastal and inland scenery, so that you too can discover the huge welcoming heart of the Algarve.
Carvoeiro is ideally placed to enable us to explore this fascinating part of the Algarve.
It has so much to offer, including pristine beaches, a traditional Portuguese ambience and an extensive selection of restaurants and bars.
Carvoeiro is a walker’s paradise with numerous hiking routes and trails that follow the rolling inland hills and spectacular coastline. The cliffs, caves and grottos are amazing for hiking, kayaking or a more relaxed boat tour.
The glorious beaches, cliffs and coves were a magnet for the early visitors who began coming in the sixties, building their charming villas which can still be seen today.
This tour is also a good opportunity to visit and appreciate an area hidden from normal tourism, giving an insight into the traditional Algarvian way of life walking through ancient farmland, smallholdings, orange orchards and the “dry” orchards so typical of this area.
