Thousands of people from all over the world take this walk each year and return in the next years to do other tracks. Some people set out on the Caminho for spiritual reasons; many others find spiritual reasons along the Way as they meet other pilgrims and others to enjoy the beautiful landscapes and all the culture and nature envolved.

Walking the Camino is a kind of therapy and a means through which they can process an internal problem of some kind. Many pilgrims use the “Camino” to let go of the past and start again with a clean soul.

When they arrive to Santiago, they can feel an amazing energy there, some people really cry when finished. It´s an amazing experience that you will never forget!

Next we cycle to Ria Formosa Natural Park where with a guide you can observe the fauna and flora. In this Park we can find many bird species, it is used as a resting area for migratory birds. Perfect nesting spot for birds arriving in spring, or the birds make the Ria Formosa their permanent habitat.

Visit to the tide mill, all restored and with a fantastic panoramic view of the barrier islands of Olhão. Afterwards we visit the Chalet Dr. João Lucio built in 1916 and now totally restored. The house has four entries distributed by the cardinal points. This Chalet has beautiful architecture and you will fall in love with the landscape.

The Algarve Granfondo Cofidis is the Granfondo of the Volta ao Algarve (Tour of Algarve). Departing and arriving in Lagoa, the 2020 edition will take place on 23rd February, on the same day as the last stage of the race that draws the most international stars to Portugal.
