One of the oldest settlements in the Albufeira municipality, Paderne Village is characterized by its rustic atmosphere and hints of an interior settlement, such as its castle. At a location about 7.5 kilometers (4.7 mi) inland, the Berbers constructed Paderne Castle in the late 12th century. The structure is about 8.2 kilometers (5.1 miles) away from the popular resort town of Albufeira. It is widely accepted as being one of the original castles included on the Portuguese flag's shield.

Then, learn about the Orange farms. Oranges from the Algarve, which are grown in an area that receives 300 days of sunlight each year, are very delicious and juicy even when picked unripe!

Throughout the way, we'll stop and tell you some tales about the Algarve and its history, and we'll show you how some of the customs that have been passed down from generation to generation have survived. You'll also have the opportunity to cross a few streams, although the chances of them being filled with water depends on weather conditions.
