Autódromo Internacional do Algarve

Highlight • Structure

Here you can hear the engine noise of the Autodromo for miles. It doesn't bother you, the scenery is great.

Algarvian Goats at Vale de Lobos

Highlight • Natural

The Algarve goat aka Cabra Algarvia is the result of crossbreeding between the Algarve Charnegais goat and the Moroccan goat (in the 19th century) and later crossbreeding with the Spanish Alpine goat (at the beginning of the 20th century).

Stork Colony at Ria de Alvor

Highlight • Natural

A whole colony of storks on their nests (mid-February). Here in the picture just one of them. Right on the N125 just behind Odiaxeres... has definitely upgraded this part of the route.
