MONCHIQUE ADVENTURE - 5 hours (plus options)- Max 5 guests |
Monchique Safari, with optional Walks and Meal
Take a half day – away from the coast – to explore the beautiful interior and empty spaces of the Algarve. We go from Silves to the top of the Monchique hills and return by a different route. We use a classic Portuguese jeep (the “UMM”) to explore little paths and stay most of the time on dirt roads. Some parts of the ride are gentle but other parts are steep so your experience will be exciting as well as beautiful. We choose the second highest summit of the Monchique hills – called “Picota” – because it is the most beautiful and untouched. It is a beautiful place to relax and admire the views. If you want feel free to take a picnic with you (to eat here or somewhere else). We will stop at a few hidden spots to enjoy the surroundings. For those who like to walk there are 3 hikes we can add to the program (at no extra cost). The first short walk of 20 minutes is to some natural springs and the second is to the hanging pedestrian bridge of Alferce. The last option is a longer and steeper walk of an hour up to the summit and back. If you would enjoy a meal at a restaurant then I know a great place to take you with delicious food and beautiful views.
This experience is the fruit of many hours exploring off the beaten track. We follow an original route that I have chosen for the variety of the landscape. If you have some ideas of your own please let me know and the program can be adapted to suit your needs.
