Where to practice an individual sport Alentejo

A Spanish doctor with a passion for horseback riding organizes guided horseback rides in the region, along finely chosen themed routes. Routes last from an hour to a full day. With a great sense of humor, he speaks French with a Belgian accent. A real character, and for his company alone, it's worth it! The horses are beautiful and well cared for, and live in the meadows on site. As for the nature walks, they're more than a change of scenery. At the end of the tour, you'll be offered a small tasting of local wine or port.

La Herdade do Pessegueiro is an equestrian center located in the Alentejano and Costa Vicentina Southwest Natural Park, in Porto Covo. Founded over 30 years ago by Mr. José Castanheira, this establishment offers horseback riding for all tastes and ages. It also has five rustic houses with sea and mountain views, and a bar where you can enjoy a fine wine while admiring photo albums or discussing equestrian topics.

It's not only in the Algarve that golfers can live out their passion. On the Troia peninsula, this 6-hectare, 18-hole golf course has already been named one of the best by Golf World magazine. And with good reason: superb views over the Serra de Arrabida nature park, a modern clubhouse, 72 bunkers, a top-of-the-range resort and marina, fine sandy beaches... all in the sun all year round. Quite simply, its creator Robert Trent Jones Jr considers it one of his finest achievements.
