Intricately painted tiles, storks nesting on sea stacks, colourful flowers and, of course, famous wines, mean that our walking holidays in Portugal are about more than walking. We actively encourage you to delight in the details – an elegant manor house, the sunlight dancing on the sea – this is what Inntravel holidays are all about. And since you’re not with a group, and have no luggage (we transfer it between hotels), you can take your time to enjoy a walking holiday that's worth it.
The westernmost Algarve is a land characterised by contrasts. Combining both seaside and countryside, this holiday begins amid the region’s rugged hills, chestnut woods, and timeless villages, before making its way towards the alluring coastline. As you walk, the colour palette shifts from green to gold, with the landscape unfolding to reveal honey-coloured cliffs and butterscotch-yellow beaches. From Cabo de São Vicente (the headland constituting mainland Europe’s south-westernmost tip), turn your gaze towards the horizon and the boundless Atlantic Ocean beams a brilliant blue back at you.
