Description

Explore the authentic side of the Algarve, far from the well-known coastal areas, revealing a region where nature, tradition, and tranquillity still set the pace of everyday life. Travel through the impressive Serra do Caldeirão, a landscape of rolling hills, Mediterranean vegetation, and small villages that seem beautifully untouched by time.

Witness the transformation of cork, understand the importance of the cork oak tree, and appreciate the dedication of those who keep this traditional craft alive. Continue to the serene Fonte Férrea Park, a natural haven where the shade of the trees and the gentle sound of running water create the perfect setting for a relaxing walk.

Conclude with a visit to the Medronho Distillery, where you’ll discover the origins of this traditional spirit. Learn about the artisanal distillation process, along with the centuries-old significance of medronho production in the mountain communities.
