Nothing better than a day with a beekeeper to get to know his very private world.<\/p>\n

During a working day there is no shortage of tasks: it is necessary to prepare the material, take care of the paintings, lay wax sheets, clean the hives, tasks that precede leaving for the field. Once there, you need to open hives, multiply colonies, place handles and frames with wax.<\/p>\n

You have to have lunch, like the beekeeper, who is a person like any other, has lunch. Walking back and forth from one apiary to another. And talk in the meantime, understand what all these words written above mean.<\/p>\n

Here’s a day with the beekeeper, in his life.<\/p>\n

Dates: March and April.
Location: Corte da Velha, M\u00e9rtola.
Duration: 1 day.
Participants: 1 to 2 people.
Price: Upon request.

In a world full of noise, and not just sound, silence is precious.<\/p>\n

An afternoon, at any time of year, can be well spent in silence, in a remote place where nature imposes itself.<\/p>\n

Silence to let in the clear sounds of nature, the infinite movement of the waters, the flow of the wind or the air, in the sun or in the shade, in the stillness and silence that invite the birds to approach, which indeed sing.<\/p>\n

We guide, in silence, where only nature speaks. And we will listen to it.<\/p>\n

Dates: Availability throughout the year by appointment.
Location: Guadiana Valley Natural Park.
Duration: 3 hours.
Type: The program includes a short walking tour, making it easily accessible.
Participants: Suitable for anyone seeking silence.
Price: Upon request.
Includes: Personal accident and civil liability insurance, guide and support.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In the late afternoon, with Stories<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAs the day passes, we hit the road.

Summer in Alentejo invites you to walk in the cool, and, along marked paths and trails, it leads us to appreciate the decline of the day, the horizons, the vegetation and even the animals that we may come across.

Let’s see the setting sun in the countryside, the twilight, the arrival of night that invites us to introspection and sharpens our senses.

We will encounter the stories, the tales of oral tradition through the voice and presence of a storyteller, who will appear to us in a seemingly unexpected way, at a crossroads, in a forest clearing or in any other place along the route.

Dates: June to September
Location: To be defined with the contractor.
Duration: 3 hours, with the possibility of developing activities of other durations.
Participants: Groups of up to 50 people.
Price: Upon request.

Collection activities are part of M\u00e9rtola’s cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

In times gone by of poverty and hunger, it was in the varied existing wild resources that food was sought, wild asparagus being one of them.<\/p>\n

We propose a walking tour along the slopes of the Guadiana River, along paths of flocks and shepherds, enjoying the horizons and harvesting asparagus, which will be cooked with eggs at the end of the tour.<\/p>\n

Dates: February and March.
Location: M\u00e9rtola.
Duration: 4 to 5 hours of activity.
Type: Moderate Route.
Participants: For everyone.
Price: Upon request.
Includes: Personal accident and civil liability insurance, guide and support.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

S\u00e3o Bar\u00e3o and the \"T\u00fabera\"<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIn the first few days of March, the S\u00e3o Bar\u00e3o mountain range experiences enormous hustle and bustle.

The rockrose poppies bloom, the wheatears and larks perform free concerts in the fields and in the sky, celebrating the arrival of good days.

On these exceptional days, in a mountain range covered in snow with white rockroses, tuber collectors head to the hills carrying a bag with which they dig in search of this underground delicacy.

We propose a climb to the Serra de S\u00e3o Bar\u00e3o along the path, between flowering rockroses, to the hermitage, returning slowly to the village of Corte da Velha where a lunch of t\u00faberas awaits us.

Dates: February and March.
Location: Corte da Velha.
Duration: 3 to 4 hours.
Type: Moderate Walk.
Participants: For everyone. From 1 to 12 participants.
Price: upon request
