Rev up your engines and set your sights on adventure with an open-top 4x4 tour of Serra do Caldeirão, a rugged escape just north of the Algarve. This action-packed outing offers panoramic views and a deep dive into the wild, mountainous landscapes for a day you won't forget.

You'll start off in Albufeira and wind through charming villages and fields on your way to Alte, a quaint village celebrated for its peaceful vibes, cultural heritage, and breathtaking surroundings. Here, savour the local flavours with a visit to a distillery where you can sip on Medronho, a traditional Algarve spirit. The adrenaline ramps up as you hit off-road trails to Malhão, pausing to soak in the views that stretch endlessly.

From April to October, you'll take a refreshing stop at Barragem da Califórnia, a serene mountain oasis perfect for a swim. Just a note, the swim stops on this tour take a break from November to March, but whatever the season, your journey ends on a high note at the Cova da Muda viewpoint and the magical Fonte Férrea.

    Le circuit en pleine nature est très sympa. Le petit.village de Alte est très typique (authentique). La halte avec dégustation chez producteur très appréciable. La restaurant du midi est dans la même veine. Très copieux et cuisine familiale portugaise au top. L'investissement du guide dans cette randonnée est tout aussi appréciable. Nous avons appris beaucoup de choses très intéressantes sur la flore notamment. Nous recommandons les yeux fermés.
