Hiking Tours in the Algarve

Algarve hiking tours follow Portugal's dramatic southwest coastline, where sandstone cliffs drop into the Atlantic and fishing villages like Carrapateira and Salema still run on local time. Macs Adventure's Algarve Coastal Trails route links these villages on foot, with your luggage moved ahead each day.

Days alternate between clifftop paths with sweeping ocean views and quieter inland stretches through cork oak and pine. The route connects into the wider Rota Vicentina network near Odeceixe, so hikers wanting a longer trip can extend north.
