Wandertour zur höchsten Kalksteinklippe Kontinentaleuropas

Our guide, Rui, was so engaging. He adjusted the pace to our level and we had a wonderful conversation throughout the hike. The trail was not-so-obvious, so we would have been lost without him. The payoff was tremendous--stunning views of the Atlantic coast from sheer cliffs. He even brought us a treat for some energy to enjoy as we sat on the cliff. It was nice to visit Lisbon and see all the history, but it was a real treat to get away from the city and see Portugal's coastline.

Das war eine tolle Wanderung! Wir empfehlen dringend vorherige Wandererfahrung, richtige Wanderschuhe, lange Hosen und Wasser. Einige der Wege waren schmal, felsig und steil. Die kleine Gruppengröße erlaubte es uns, uns in unserem eigenen Tempo zu bewegen und Andre sorgte dafür, dass wir in den Gebieten mit anspruchsvollerem Gelände navigieren konnten. Die harte Arbeit wurde mit herrlichen Aussichten belohnt. Andre blieb während der gesamten Reise informativ und zeigte seine echte Liebe zur Region. Er machte Fotos und Videos für uns und stellte sie im Rahmen der Exkursion zur Verfügung. Ein toller Tag! Wir empfehlen dies für alle, die für einen Tag voller Abenteuer abseits der Stadt bereit sind.

The difficulty is medium to difficult, thanks to the uneven terrain and sections of up-and-down rock and heavy bushes. Many parts of the “trail” feel less like a path and more like you’re channeling a mountain goat—expect loose stones underfoot and steep zig‑zag climbs. Essential packing tip: Come prepared with sturdy boots, full‑length pants (thorns can be merciless!), and long sleeves. The route weaves through thick brush and low-hanging branches. If you aren’t prepared , be prepared to get cut up! At the top (around 381 m/1,250 ft), the views explode in every direction—crashing waves, jagged coastline, dense greenery. Truly breathtaking! Our guide was knowledgeable, easy-going, and eager to share fascinating facts about local plants, geology, and history. He took time to pause and point out wildflowers, birdlife, and best spots for photos. Difficulty: Medium to tough – rocky terrain and dense brush equals effort! Gear needed: Hiking boots, long pants, long sleeves, plenty of water & snacks. Highlight: Spectacular panoramic views from the cliff top. If you’re in good shape and love getting off the beaten path, this will be one of your most unforgettable hikes. Just don’t call it a “leisure stroll”—it’s a rugged, wild, unforgettable climb with amazing payoff.
