Walking and activities

On Quinta do Pomarinho you can relax in a hammock or near our small lake, for instance with a good book. You can also be active by, for example, helping out with numerous activities on the farm, or find cooling in the pool or lake. The Alentejo is very suitable for a range of outdoor adventures and other activities, such as cycling, hiking, horse riding and swimming. Or you can choose to be introduced to the rich Portuguese cultural heritage.

Quinta do Pomarinho is the centre for walking in the Alto Alentejo of Portugal, in the beautiful Serra de São Mamede Natural Park. In the Natural Park and its surroundings you can walk unique and varied trails over age-old paths that link cork oak forests and white castle-villages to Castelo de Vide and Marvão. You walk past the Tague river and visit griffon vultures in Spain. You can do these walks with company, by participating in one of our group walking holidays, walk individually, or compose your own group of acquaintainces to go walking in Portugal.

Furthermore, you can learn Portuguese by participating in our practical course Portuguese in a group. It is also possible to have an individual custom course Portuguese tailored to your needs. In addition, you can sculpture and model in the winter months of January and February, under the guidance of a devoted sculpturing artist.
