A regenerating wellness experience in the Algarve

 

Portugal is among the countries in Europe that I love most. The southern region of the Algarve stands out for its mild climate, beautiful beaches, picturesque villages and unspoiled nature. In the Serra de Moncique, among fresh mountain forests, lies the spa town of Caldas de Moncique, famous for its natural alkaline healing waters.

5 minutes from here, on the hills overlooking the coast, the Monchique Resort & Spa 5 * is the perfect place to regenerate yourselves enjoying breathtaking views. A weekly program of visits and spa treatments is the key to achieving the goal! Every day, of course, it is possible to access the spa services of the resort where the practices and the best ingredients of the Monchique are used: from Flor de Sal exfoliation, to body hydration with local spring waters to messages with hot mineral stones.
 

 
 
 
 
 

Anyway you can experience a lot of things, there’s an embarrassment of choice. Do you prefer a day cycling around the hills of Monchique through the forests of eucalyptus and cork trees, a walking tour following the "Roman Paths", - or an off-road tour to reach Foia, the highest peak in the Algarve? An interesting excursion is a visit to an artisanal organic spirulina farm, located in a nature reserve. Enthusiastic owners George and Christina produce this superfood, and will introduce you to the secrets of production and the incredible benefits of spirulina. Do not miss the opportunity to taste it and take home some of this superfood!
 

 
 

A day will be dedicated to the discovery of the splendid coast. With a private guide you take a scenic coastal path where you can admire the best views of the caves and hidden beaches of the western Algarve. One of the most beautiful beaches is Praia da Marinha, with pristine waters and wonderful rock formations. Another day will pass in the picturesque village of Caldas de Monchique, famous for its alkaline mineral waters renowned since Roman times for their healing properties. Enjoy a treatment at Villa Termal das Caldas de Monchique Spa, the only spa in southern Portugal.
 

 
 
 

Remaining in the resort, there are also programs that set in motion vital energy and help reconnect with one's inner self, providing benefits for the body and mind. But if you still want to experience other outdoor activities you can choose between a guided tour of the medieval town of Silves, where you can taste the best oranges of Europe; or experience the benefits of Nordic Walking and burn 40% more calories than a regular walk.

Ready to leave for the Algarve and immerse yourself in this incredible wellness experience!
