Who are your hiking programs suitable for?
Our self-guided walking holidays in Southwest Portugal are suitable for travelers of all ages, typically from 12 to 65 years old. We offer a range of itineraries — from short, scenic walks to longer multi-day routes — along the breathtaking coastal trails of the Rota Vicentina, one of the most iconic trilhos na costa portuguesa. Whether you’re an experienced hiker or a first-time walker, we’ll help you find the perfect route that matches your rhythm and interests.

You walk independently using detailed daily instructions and GPS tracks provided by us. We arrange your accommodations, luggage transfers, and offer full local support throughout your trip.
