HIKE & WINES of Arrábida: Light

Описание услуги

Distance: 6 km Elevation gain: 88 m Duration: 4 hours Difficulty level: Moderate (2/5) Included Tasting Experience: 4–5 local wines Portuguese cheeses Regional accompaniments Just 40 minutes from Lisbon lies the Arrábida Natural Park — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve where Atlantic air meets cork forests and vineyards. This private experience is designed for those who appreciate movement with elegance. We begin in the quiet village of Cabanas and enter Mediterranean forest. Cork oaks, olive trees, rural farms, and rolling vineyard landscapes unfold at a relaxed pace. The terrain includes gentle ascents and descents, perfectly manageable yet engaging. Along the way, I share insights into cork harvesting, local agriculture, and the living traditions of the region. After approximately 2.5 hours, we arrive at the family-owned winery Quinta de Alcube. Founded in the 1970s and still run by the same family, Alcube reflects authentic Setúbal wine culture — refined, grounded, and deeply connected to the land. You’ll have time to relax among the vineyards and enjoy the peaceful estate atmosphere. Afterwards, we continue with a scenic drive through Arrábida before drop-off at your accommodation (Lisbon, Sesimbra, or Setúbal). A perfect balance of nature, culture, and gastronomy — without exhaustion. ________________________________________ Practical Notes • Private experience • Pickup included from Lisbon, Sesimbra, or Setúbal • Suitable year-round • Minimum age 12+ (wine tasting 18+) • Comfortable shoes required • Optional summer add-on: visit to Praia da Galapinhos, recognized among Europe’s most beautiful beaches
