The Monchique municipality
The whole Monchique municipality, in one place.
Up in the Algarve’s mountains, Monchique is the region’s green roof: chestnut woods, thermal springs and the peak of Fóia, with the whole coast laid out below. This is everything happening across the concelho: the town, the events and the businesses, brought together and kept current by the community.
