Andar a Monte / Cork Oak Forest Walks is a family-run business born from the desire and need to share Evoramonte’s rich heritage. We are Mother and Daughter, Helena and Matilde, and together we started this company in July 2018. We bring together the enthusiasm for this region, its people and customs, with our foreign language skills (German, English and French). We offer to guide you through the villages of this locality imparting the stories and folklore legends of the Enchanted Moura, of snakes that hoard treasures and portals to other worlds.
Evoramonte is situated on the western end of the Serra d’Ossa mountains, in Central Alentejo. Due to its strategic spot, it has played an important role in the creation and history of Portugal. There are also signs that it has been a significant location since ancient times. Nowadays, it’s an extremely pleasant destination with an abundance of history and breathtaking scenery.
