The Great Guadiana Route (GR15) is a long-distance linear hiking trail (approximately 65 km in the Algarve, with extensions in the Alentejo) that follows the Guadiana River, connecting the Algarve coast (Vila Real de Santo António) to the mountainous interior (Alcoutim and Mértola), crossing diverse landscapes (mountains, Barrocal, coastline), cultural and natural heritage, making it ideal for hiking and mountain biking, with connection points to other routes such as the Via Algarviana (GR13). 👍🥾🦯

Along the Guadiana, the path meanders serenely, following the river's slow rhythm between hills of olive, almond, and fig trees. A former river of fishermen and miners, the Guadiana, called the "river of ducks" by the Romans, continues to connect Alentejo with Algarve and Portugal with Spain, a tranquil mirror of southern history and life.

The castle sits atop a hill overlooking the Guadiana River. The river forms the natural border between Portugal and Spain.

Sanlúcar de Guadiana, in the province of Huelva, is a charming town on the border with Portugal, located on the banks of the Guadiana River. Its natural beauty, history, and outdoor activities make it an ideal destination for a relaxing and exciting getaway.

In 1876, an unprecedented flood of the Guadiana River revealed previously unknown ruins: the Roman Villa of Montinho das Laranjeiras. Founded in the 1st century BC, it was inhabited continuously until the end of the Islamic period, when it was finally abandoned. Its privileged position allowed trade along the river as far as Mértola and ensured the continuity of Roman, Visigothic, and Islamic occupation.

The River Museum reveals the soul of the Guadiana: its history, traditions, and the vital role it played in transporting ore. It also celebrates the region's natural and cultural heritage, from artisanal fishing to gastronomy, not forgetting the memories of smuggling during the Estado Novo. Among the exhibits, miniature replicas of the vessels that plied these waters until the 1960s stand out.

Here, very close to the Corte das Donas, you'll find this decommissioned windmill. The building is in ruins, but it adds a charming touch to the landscape and offers a glimpse into the life that once existed here.

Alcoutim is a small but attractive village in the interior of the Algarve. It is located about 40 kilometers from the coast on the border river with Spain, the Guadiana. The most beautiful sight of Alcoutim is actually the view of its twin village Sanlucar de Guadiana. You can cross by ferry, but also very spectacularly with a zipline. The only one in the world with which you cross the border.
