Description by the author

From the parking lot Avenida 24 de Junho, 8950 Altura, Portugal
To the bus station or train station of 8900-201 Vila Real de Santo António

Preamble:
Legendary Adventure (www.legendatours.com) offers a hiking package tour in East Algarve with Tavira as the base.
This includes 7 overnight stays (room + breakfast), transport to and from Faro airport, 5 very different hiking tours with a detailed roadbook, and transport to the starting points.
These are offered in Belgium by Adagio Tours (www.adagiotours.be & info@adagiotours.be).
Description:
This hike is a flat walk that runs from Altura to the river (Rio Guadiana), which also forms the border with Spain in Vila Real de Santo António.
Primarily, this hike goes through pine forests.
Halfway, in the tourist town of Monte Gordo (quite a few hotels), there is ample opportunity to see the fishermen at work trying to sell their catches.
The final destination Vila Real de Santo António is a very charming town where it is wonderful to linger and have lunch :-).
The return journey to Tavira can be done by bus or train.
