Itinerary
Transfer from Faro to Lagos
Welcome to Portugal!
Our guide will pick you up at the airport and drive you to your accommodation in Lagos. There you’ll have a quick briefing given by our guide and the necessary equipment for the tour. Enjoy the rest of the day in this lovely town, and prepare for the upcoming days of adventure.
Hike from Lagos to Praia da Luz
The old narrow streets of the city of Lagos will be the starting point of your journey.
Heading towards the sea, you can still see evidence of the ancient wall surrounding the town. Delight yourself with Ponta da Piedade, a group of rock formations carved by dense eroded cliffs that have carved out rocky pillars, natural tunnels, and hidden caves. Find some of the most beautiful natural sceneries of the Algarve coast. Later, you will encounter a small town that harbors a beautiful beach of pure golden sand, and that goes by the name of Luz. This is your resting scene for the day, filled with peace and quiet.
Hike from Praia da Luz to Salema
Today will be reserved to experience and visit some quiet but lovely local villages and their fishing traditions.
The beach of Luz is just absolutely perfect! You can choose to enjoy the quiet, beautiful beach or to explore some of the Roman bath ruins, which are from sometime between the 3rd and 5th centuries. These lie just behind the wall that runs along the promenade. What can we say about Salema? It's a fantastic, out-of-the-way, and laidback kind of town. An alternative village where you can enjoy the beach and the tasty local gastronomy based on the fresh fish from the ocean.
Hike by Inland Villages near Salema
Today you have many choices.
This is the perfect day to rest if you need it. Salema is a charming little town, and you can take advantage of this “rest day” to relax on our wonderful beaches. Otherwise, you will have the possibility to discover some typical inland villages, amazing stone pinewood, and add some kilometers to your week. We have a long and short option prepared for you and your level of fitness. Take your time to choose and enjoy the day!
Hike from Salema / Zavial to Sagres
Today, there will be two options. Start your hike to Sagres in Salema, or instead, start from Zavial after a short car transfer.
This day will be the most challenging on the whole trip, but also the most spectacular one in natural beauty! Wander through some unspoiled secret beaches with lagoons and a coastline that is almost untouched by man. You will find a landscape of rare beauty, right there for you to discover while you walk along the trails on the cliffs. At Baleeira Bay, enjoy the amazing beach of fine sand and five small islands that give this place a unique charm.
Hike from Sagres to Cape São Vicente
On the last walking day, you will walk along the high cliffs of Sagres.
Discover the Cape São Vicente - the place where the land ends and the sea begins! A stage for many past battles, Sagres is the south-westernmost point in Continental Europe and also the place where our brave ancestors sailed on their caravels seeking new adventures and continents five centuries ago!
Transfer from Sagres to Faro
That's it! Our splendid program comes to an end.
We hope that the memories and experiences that we have created and shared stay with you forever. Come back soon to discover some more of Portugal's Nature Trails!
