JOIN
THE BIGGEST HIKING FESTIVAL IN PORTUGAL
The
TransAlentejo Walking Festival is an event that takes place
over four weekends, covering the entire territory of Alentejo,
in a total of 47 municipalities and covering the 50 TransAlentejo
Pedestrian Trails that are infrastructured on the ground.
Given that there are 8 days available for the practice of
50 walking tours, there must be a wide range of walks that
take place simultaneously. Participants must therefore make
their choice in which they wish to participate.
The Walking Tours agenda is available in Global
Program with the name of the tour, the municipality where
it takes place, information about the meeting point, the entity
that will accompany you and the status of the appointment.
As they are confirmed the "schedule status" changes
to "Confirmed". If you sign up for a Walking Tour
that is not confirmed, you will be informed and you can choose
another one in the region.

City Council.

ACCOMMODATION
Participants can stay in any tourist accommodation in Alentejo, and
must book directly with them. Reservations can be made through booking
or airbnb platforms, but doing so directly increases the profitability
of local businesses. If you need help with accommodation, see www.visitalentejo.com
PARTY
DINNERS
Every weekend there will be a Party Dinner on Saturday. You must
register in the registration form for the Walking Tours. Meals are
typical of Alentejo with several options, buffet or served, where
you will have alternatives for those who do not eat meat or other
conditions and gastronomic options. Meals include starters, bread
(obviously), assorted dishes or snacks, desserts, drinks and coffee.
The price of dinner is 22.00Euros or 25.00Euros (only Évora)
per person, paid directly at the restaurant.
