Camping Serro da Bica

General information

from 54 reviews Write review

Camping Serro da Bica provides a good holiday location for hikers, bird-watchers and nature lovers in Alentejo, Portugal. The campsite is close to the city of Ourique (11 km), known for its local delicacy ‘Black Pork’. It is a campsite that embraces simplicity, with various pitches among the hills. Trees provide the necessary shade but, to really cool off, go to the nearby Rio Mira river.

Back to the basics

At this campsite, you really go ‘back to the basics’ with your own camping equipment. The pitches are distributed over a hilly area, giving you a choice between a spot in the sun or under the shade of a tree. The pitches are simple but neat and have the necessary connections.

Although the campsite focuses on a rustic experience, it does not lack the most essential amenities. The sanitary facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the pathways are paved.

Connection with nature

On the other side of the hill is the Rio Mira, a river that winds through the green landscape and flows into the Santa Clara reservoir some 20 kilometres further. Cast your line out into this river or lay your towel on its banks or go for a swim.

Alentejo is known for its beautiful natural environment: from glowing hills to thick wooded areas and from vast plains to swamps. It is a true paradise for many species of birds. Around the campsite you will spot bee-eaters, blue magpies, long-legged buzzards, storks, flamingos and vultures.

De Nederlandse eigenaren Menno en Miranda stellen alles in het werk de gasten het naar de zin te maken! Geen moeite is ze te veel. Met de jaarwisseling was er een vrijblijvend event georganiseerd, wij zijn er niet bij geweest, maar Miranda kwam ons bij de caravan een schaaltje zelfgebakken oliebollen brengen! ( klein voorbeeld) top camping , ook voor rust zoekers.

Mooie kleine camping in een rustig gebied met top eigenaren die er alles aan doen om de gasten te helpen.
En zeer schoon en verwarmt sanitair wat je niet vaak tegen komt in portugal

Rustig in de natuur gelegen aan de rivier de Mira (viswater en zwemwater)
Schitterende wandelroutes en fietsroutes
Voor vogelaars een ideale uitvalsbasis is veel te spotten
Prima camping

Reaction from the campsite June 18, 2022

Hartelijk dank voor uw feedback. Inmiddels hebben wij onze, ruim 40, tochten op Komoot staan. En die breiden wij uit op gebied van wandelen, fietsen of met de auto. Graag tot een volgende keer.

Hele ruime plaatsen en gescheiden van elkaar. Met veel informatie en gezellige happy hour om 17.00u
Je voelt je er thuis en in de natuur, met veel zon en voldoende schaduw. Prima wifi

Reaction from the campsite June 18, 2022

Hartelijk dank voor uw feedback. Het is natuurlijk wel een kleine camping, met voor de kinderen minder vertier. Overigens de kinderen die hier wel komen vermaken zich prima. Graag willen wij weten wat wij op het gebied van de sportfaciliteiten nog kunnen verbeteren.
Op gebied van sport hebben wij, fietsen, zwemmen, vissen, jue de boules, kubb, sjoelen, kaarten, diverse bordspellen, wandelen, fitnesshoek, etc.

Dit is dé kleinschalige camping die je eer keer bezocht moet hebben. Oktober 2021 was onze eerste kennismaking. We kregen met onze camper een hele mooie vrije plaats. Alle rust is hier te vinden. Eigenaren zijn zeer vriendelijk, sanitair is meer dan prima. En toch voelt het basic en dat is positief bedoeld. De camping is bij uitstek geschikt voor stellen (met jonge kinderen) die van rust, natuur, vrijheid houden. Minder geschikt voor 10 plus kinderen.

Reaction from the campsite June 18, 2022

Hartelijk dank voor uw feedback. Ook fijn dat u specifiek de groep met kinderen juist beschrijft. Zo zien wij dat ook.
Graag tot een volgende keer.
