The challenge involves visiting the footpath that stretches for some 300 km across the entire Algarve, from Alcoutim in the east to Cape Saint Vincent in the west. The trail is suitable for walkers and cyclists and it affords a unique experience in close contact with the region\u2019s nature and wonders. If you are on holiday at\u00a0Golden Club Cabanas<\/a>, you might like to explore some of the sections of the Via Algarviana. There are 15 short routes, 11 connections and 4 themed routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several of the routes can be adapted to suit everyone\u2019s individual needs and abilities. Whether you go alone, as part of a group or with family, pay attention to the various signs that you will encounter along the way, as they will help guide you on your explorations of the Via Algarviana. Interpretation panels and signs in different colours placed alongside the route help keep you in the right direction, so that following the path is easy and intuitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Via Algarviana is a good way to become acquainted with the whole inland area of the Algarve. Explore customs and villages replete with history and tradition, or feel at one with nature in its purest state in the wilderness of the Algarve uplands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This route is divided into 14 different sectors, depending on the level of difficulty of each section. Also named the GR13<\/em>, the Via Algarviana crosses the Algarve\u2019s various mountain ranges (Caldeir\u00e3o, Monchique and Espinha\u00e7o de C\u00e3o), the transitional \u201cBarrocal\u201d area that separates the mountains from the coastal area, the foothills of the mountains and part of the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Nature Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you decide to walk or cycle, it is very important that you take care to stay hydrated along the way. It is also essential to take along some snacks to restore your energy while you pause for a rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe you will make marvellous memories on the Via Algarviana and that you will always remember the gorgeous scenery. This is also a great way of combining exercise and close contact with nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
