Summary

Treat yourself to a week of relaxation, connecting with nature, and physical activity. Your yoga vacation in the Algarve takes you to the mountains of Monchique and along select coastal trails in the southern and western Algarve—following in the footsteps of the Fisherman’s Trail.

At the charming, rustic Quinta Algarve, a soothing retreat awaits you—one that nourishes body, mind, and soul alike. You’ll enjoy daily yoga and meditation (Hatha/Vinyasa, Yin) on the yoga deck overlooking the mountains or in the yoga dome. During three hikes, you’ll also discover the beauty of Portugal. You can also look forward to a sound journey and mantra singing, as well as plenty of time for “ME TIME” by the pool or in the Quinta’s garden. Culinary delights include fresh, daily meals—served in the Quinta’s garden.

A yoga retreat that engages all your senses and gives you the space to recharge.
