Full description

Your exciting day will begin with you being picked up from your hotel in Lisbon before being transported to the start point of the hike, around a half-hour drive away.

The entire hike is along the gorgeous Lisbon coast and starts at the remote beach of Bicas, famous among surfers of big waves. You will follow a trail well-trodden path lined with arrows and you will stop at many stunning remote beaches along the way.

Magnificent landscapes far from the beaten track ...

We had a great day on this 14 kilometer hike along the west coast. What we liked during this hike: 1) the guide: André is an excellent reassuring and attentive guide; 2) meeting no one on the way; 3) proper organization of transfers; 4) the snacks provided and the glass offered during the departure debriefing. Do not hesitate this excursion offers excellent value for money!
