Sticking to the Land
Downhill Off-Road Mountain Biking: Get off the beaten track and become intimate with the emerald green forests of Monchique while at speed. Mountain biking tours begin at the peak of the Algarve mountains and you’ll be following an experienced and knowledgeable guide along a varied route that will allow you to view local landmarks on the way. Test your resilience on a mixture of gravel roads, single country tracks and hills before stopping for a delicious lunch to refuel.
Paintballing: Gear up for a heart-racing day of paintballing in the perfect setting of serene natural woodland – be sure to blend in with your surroundings! Set off with your pals on your own game or follow the instructors. All safety gear including boiler suit and goggles to protect your clothes and eyes will be provided, so you can get stuck in and arm yourself ready for battle.
Dive in at the Deep End
Flyboarding: A new, intriguing activity combining surfing, jet-skiing, kitesurfing and wakeboarding, flyboarding allows you to take to the sky and fly up to ten metres above the water. This sport can be quickly picked up and is surprisingly easy to master, so you’ll be able to impress your friends in no time.
Jet-Skiing: Cool off and re-energise from a long, hot day at the beach by taking the wheel (or handlebars) and jetting off across the open sea. Revel in a high-speed solo ride, or have a friend hop on the back, while you cut through the waves and enjoy the view at the same time.
Get Up High
Paragliding: The ultimate way to gain an adrenaline-rush while taking in the incredible Algarve skyline is by getting up high with paragliding. The gentle winds of the region make this a very pleasant yet exciting experience.
High Ropes: A tree-top adventure to remember awaits you! Clamber through the forest and test your monkey-like skills on ropes, nets, bridges and zip lines.
