Alentejo is not just nature and landscapes, it’s a place full of history, traditions, great gastronomy, world class wines and the best weather in Europe. Here, you can discover lilac fields, watch unique birds and find landscapes that you will never forget, whether in the heart of the plains, on top of a cliff, in the cork oak woodland or near the ocean. The walled towns of Marvão and Monsaraz or the many ancient dolmens will recall the magic of this region. Around the hills, whitewashed houses stand on small knolls, castles evoke battles and conquests and the yards and gardens are witnesses to the Arab influences which shaped both people and nature.
Watch the birds at the plains, ride your Mountain Bike with total autonomy along the mountain ranges or walk along the ocean. Enjoy what Alentejo has to offer you at its own pace.
