- Begin your date by heading toward the serene orchards of Alcongosta, a village located in the Fundão region. The beautiful cherry trees are laden with ripe fruit in September. Spend some time picking cherries together, an activity that allows for a laid-back, playful interaction.

Preparation steps:
- Firstly, you will need your picnic essentials. Pack a picnic blanket, some homemade sandwiches or wraps, and any other snacks you may like. It's more special if you make the food yourselves before heading out. Do remember to carry a bottle of water.
- Check the weather forecast for any unexpected changes and dress accordingly. Comfortable clothes and shoes are a must as you'll be walking and sitting on the grass.
