Sintra Coastal Hike

Explore the coastline of the Sintra- Cascais Natural Park.

Focused on a hike through nature, this is a day that will take you along the fantastic blue coast and breathtaking cliffs close to the westernmost point of Continental Europe - Cape Roca! Here a beautiful lighthouse illuminates the coast since 1772. Hike inland passing by the small towns of Ulgueira and Azóia where people still live a relax life although they are so close to the city. This day tour is a perfect introduction to the natural side of Sintra while still being close to the coast.
