The Algarve, with its endless sandy beaches, its crystal clear sea and its imposing cliffs of yellow reddish sandstone, is the most sunny coastal part of all Portugal and therefore brings together all the ingredients of a successful seaside stay! Nevertheless, the region in the extreme southwest of the European continent has even more to offer: a hilly hinterland with a proliferation of flowers, an impressive and unpaid rocky coast and charming river landscapes that invite all to Long walks. The Rother "Algarve" hiking guide presents 53 of the most beautiful hiking on the coast and mountain thanks to which the holidays are transformed into magnificent and unforgettable memories.


The whole southern coast of the Algarve offers magnificent coastal hikes: from the tip to the extreme southwest of Europe to the spectacular sea seaside cliffs of the Barlavento and the vast sandy beaches in the Sotavento, this Guide offers many possibilities of short or long hikes - not forgetting of course to mention many bathing sites. Other hikes make it possible to discover the beauties which punctuate the virgin and solidarity hinterland of the Algarve: the high mountains in the Monchique massif, the impressive meanders of the Rio Guadiana and the sublime roads through orchards of almond and Flower fields.
