알제주르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 산 정상

We had really thick fog here, but it was still lovely. The funny cyclist figure, well... 8-)

At the top of the Monchique mountain range rises Foia, the highest point in the Algarve, at 902 meters altitude. Its antennas mark the summit where the sky seems closest and, on clear days, the view reaches the Atlantic. Up here, the wind blows freely and the view is simply unforgettable.

The summit is worth it - unfortunately, the biker on the pedestal is no longer there.

After rains, the ponds on either side can overflow and make the trailhead hard to get through with dry feet

The highest mountain in the Algarve is recommended in any weather and when it's nice you have a great view!

Alto da Fóia, at 902m above sea level, is the highest point in the Algarve. It is part of the Serra de Monchique massif. On a clear day, the Atlantic Ocean is visible from the summit.

Quite steep climb through a wild valley. The landscapes are beautiful.

From above you have a spectacular view of the sea. You can start the climb to Fóia (PR 3) Monchique – Fóia at the summit and then walk downhill. Or you start in the village of Monchique and walk back and forth. One route is around 6.5 km long and takes 2 hours, depending on your fitness level.
