Slow down your outlook, discover Portugal’s spirit and readjust your compass on this health hike. I look forward to having you onboard soon! Bom dia!
HELLO! I'm Marion
The Idea Behind Walksperia
Hiking has always played a key role in my leisure activities throughout my life. A spirit of adventure and inquisitiveness have been my regular companions.
In my early twenties I became captivated by a country where travel was still an obstacle, especially for a woman alone: China. Despite initial misgivings I spent many years in China, becoming familiar with its people, culture, nature and the practice of Qigong. Qigong is an ancient Chinese practice that combines movement, meditation, and breath control to cultivate and balance the body’s vital energy (Qi).
After living, working and walking experiences in five countries (Germany, Switzerland, China, Hongkong, Singapore) I am now adding a sixth to my „wanderlust portfolio“: Portugal. It is truly a popular and familiar tourist destination, but Portugal’s virtually unknown hinterland embraces the most breathtaking natural scenery imaginable. An asset that inspired me to set up Walksperia – guided health walks through Portugal’s natural magnificence. Is there anything better than relieving stress, bettering health and enjoying the country? Nada!
As a certified European Hiking Guide, I take you on a special journey embodying Experience, Energy, Equilibrium (3E’s)
By incorporating Qigong into the health hiking tours, Walksperia is able to offer its clients a unique and transformative experience that not only strengthens their bodies and minds but also awakens the soul.
All hiking tours are arranged with complete respect for the region’s people and environment. We stay at a family-run small hotel with its own spring water and own solar power generation.
