Autumn Hike Retreat with Liesje Patteet ♡
We’re happy to welcome you again to Monte Cucs on the south-west coast of Portugal, on top of our mountain and surrounded by forests and sea.
During a period of four days your guide Liesje Patteet will challenge you and your body with a daily hike of approximately 20km on the south-west coast of Portugal better known as the Rota Vicentina.
Each day you will walk a different part of this beautiful Fishermen's Trail.
Our private chef Maria Gonzalez will be in charge of the feast for your tummy.
After an energizing breakfast they will provide you with a delicious pick-nick lunch that you can enjoy during the walk.
A sun-drenched sunset will be followed by pick up at the end of the day’s trail, to be taken back to Monte Cucs.
Now it’s time for relaxation, a good book, some rest or who knows, a splash in our unheated, organic swimming pool.
In the evening you will be served a delicious meal, followed by a good night's rest.
Immerse yourself for six days in an oasis of tranquility, good vibes and delicious meals.
We take care of everything!
