Discover the old footpaths of a little known paradise & more.... Consider joining us as we explore, by foot, the old footpaths of the western most remote tip of Europe. This enchanted, mysterious destination is just where you might expect the heart of the Atlantic to be. Little noticed by the world, and largely forgotten by time, the small island FLORES and its tiny neighbor CORVO have stood quietly way out there beyond the horizon of time and humanity. These islands watched, and sometimes hosted explorers, discoverers and adventurers en route to the New World. Now it's their turn to be discovered in all their tranquil beauty, and unspoiled charm. ~~Our guided walking & other trips are for everyone who loves nature and simplicity! Special trips Our Walking Trips A week just for Women KAYAK the jagged coast SCUBA shipwrecks /subaquatics FISH one of the 7 craters CYCLE the 12 villages PAINT an exquisite vista COOK w/Rozalie our chef SWIM the natural tide pool LEARN some conversational Portuguese Finish a day with a relaxing massage       When you join one of our Fully Guided Weeks, you will experience first hand why it is our philosophy that travel and explorations are best done in small groups, (never more then 12), and by foot ("a pe"). This is especially true when one's playground is a place so rich in nature as these two islands. With this in mind, we've created a week-long trekking and walking program designed to delight the senses, as we discover the vast network of ancient footpaths connecting all 12 villages of the island. These beaten paths meander along the coast, high on the edge of cliffs, down verdant valleys, along the shore, across dairy pastures, and up into hill country high above the villages, all along their way, revealing the MANY TREASURES that exist here.
