Odeceixe - Aljezur
Odeceixe, Faro, Portugal
About this hike
Crossing into Algarve proper, Stage 6 swings inland through cork‑oak groves, arbutus orchards, and sleepy hamlets before rejoining wild coastal bluffs. Red sandstone cliffs and sprawling dunes contrast riverine wetlands as Aljezur’s castle‑topped hill emerges above fertile fields of famous sweet potatoes, echoing Moorish heritage and ancient local pilgrim tales.
