Monchique Walking Experience

Get closer to nature in the Algarve with a day trip walking around the lush green forests of Serra de Monchique.

Head up into the hills away from the crowds and immerse yourself in the rural mountain region of Monchique, following the donkey tracks and paths to locations off the beaten track.

The walk covers a total distance of 11km and takes around three and a half hours to complete with it being a moderate walk suitable for anyone over the age of 10 with a reasonable level of fitness.
​
Allow yourself to be guided through the orange groves into the town of Monchique with its 12th century church, day market and cobbled streets before stopping for lunch to recharge your batteries and finish the walk through the cork and eucalyptus forest typical of this area.
