Wild West Coast Hiking Adventure with Sunset Picnic Dinner & Wine
Overview
This is not your typical Algarve experience. While most travelers stick to tourist hotspots, we venture off-grid into the wild, untamed landscapes of Costa Vicentina Natural Park—a place few visitors ever experience.
Every trip is handcrafted, immersive, and shaped by the group, the season, and the moment. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, we adapt, explore, and let nature guide the experience. We don’t just see nature—we experience it through storytelling, hands-on discovery, and moments of reflection.
This is not a big tour company—it’s just me, sharing my passion for this place, leading every hike, cooking every meal, and making sure every guest feels part of something special.
I aim to offer something real, immersive, a bit off-beat, and deeply personal—not just another tour, but a memory for life.

What To Expect
Discover Europe’s most undiscovered coastline on a one-of-a-kind journey to the Algarve’s wild side. This handcrafted adventure takes us deep into Costa Vicentina Nature Reserve, a place once thought to be the End of the World.
This is not a sightseeing tour—and not just a hike. It’s a full-sensory outdoor experience designed to challenge, inspire, and reconnect, a journey for body, mind, soul—& stomach.
We’ll hike across towering sea cliffs, hidden beaches, and remote landscapes, moving at a relaxed, immersive pace with time to learn, reflect, and soak it all in. If conditions allow, we’ll recharge with a swim in the Atlantic. Along the way, we’ll bring the landscape to life with stories, senses, and hands-on experiences that reveal the region’s rich natural and cultural history.
Our day ends with a private sunset picnic at the edge of Europe. A spread of homemade Algarvian tapas, crafted with care and paired with local wine, makes the perfect reward as we watch the sun dip into the ocean from our secluded clifftop.
Escape the crowds, embrace the wild, and experience the Algarve like you never expected.
Bonus: Escape the heat! The West Coast stays fresh & cool all year round.

(1) a few hours of sustained, low-level aerobic activity (like a long walk or bike ride); (2) shorter periods of more vigorous exertion (like hiking a big, steep hill, or playing a good game of tennis); (3) the balance and full-body mobility to move across areas of loose, uneven, or slippery terrain that might require using hands and whole bodies; (4) the spirit for adventure and the ability to take on some (potential) challenges with a smile :)
