Monchique
MONCHIQUE
The Algarve is much more than a simple coastline with some of the best beaches in Europe.
Visiting Monchique (affectionately nicknamed “Jardim do Algarve”- “ The garden of Algarve”) is visiting a mountainous area with great plant diversity and a mild climate.
It’s natural heritage, with crystalline streams at the bottom of steep valleys, is a magnificent complement to the Algarve coast.
Discover the beautiful and colorful handicrafts, some of the most genuine traditional restaurants and, of course, explore the countless walking tours one can take in the Serra de Monchique.
Several levels are available. From the easiest ones, made in an urban park environment, to the most difficult ones through the charms of Fóia and the emblematic waterfalls of the region.
