• 25 de Abril Bridge - The journey begins with a convenient hotel pick-up in a private vehicle. As the tour departs Lisbon, the iconic 25 de Abril Bridge is crossed, offering stunning panoramic views of the Tagus River.

The scenery transitions from urban landscapes to the untouched, wild coastline of Arrabida Natural Park.

• Azoia - Trailhead (Azoia / Arrabida Area)

Upon reaching the trailhead, there is a brief moment to prepare for the hike, reviewing the route, terrain, and pace.

This marks the true beginning of the adventure — stepping away from the road into the serene, wild landscapes of Arrabida.

• Parque Natural da Arrabida - Scenic Coastal Hike and Fishermen’s Staircase

The hike commences along panoramic clifftop trails with views of the Atlantic Ocean. The route (1.5–3.5 km) is tailored to fitness levels and selected for its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere.

Along the journey, participants will experience:
– Mediterranean vegetation and unique coastal ecosystems
– Geological formations sculpted by the ocean and wind
– Hidden viewpoints ideal for photos and peaceful moments

The pace is relaxed and entirely private — allowing time to pause, breathe, and absorb the surroundings.

The highlight of the hike is a steep yet rewarding descent via an old stone staircase carved into the limestone cliffs by local fishermen decades ago.

This section requires stable footing and adds a sense of adventure — leading to a location inaccessible by road.

• Parque Natural da Arrábida - Return Hike or Optional Boat Transfer

After time at the beach, the return hike begins along the same scenic trail, including the uphill climb.

For a more leisurely and memorable conclusion, an optional boat transfer to Sesimbra harbor can be arranged in advance (additional cost and subject to prior request). This option is available only during the summer season and depends on sea conditions, ensuring a safe transfer when the ocean is calm.

This allows for experiencing the coastline from the water — providing a completely different perspective of Arrabida’s cliffs.

• 25 de Abril Bridge - Drop-Off

At the end of the experience, enjoy a comfortable return to the accommodation.

• Private transportation
• Private guided experience (fully personalized pace and route)
• Bottled water
• Hiking poles (on request)
• Snacks
• In-vehicle air conditioning
• Hotel pick-up and drop-off

This isn’t your ordinary beach outing — it’s a personalized, exclusive adventure for those seeking more than just a picturesque view.

The secluded beach cannot be reached by car — it requires a walk along scenic coastal paths and a historic fishermen’s staircase carved into the cliffs. The journey itself is part of the experience.

The hike varies from 3 to 7 km, depending on the chosen path, with several routes available. The difficulty level is moderate to high (4/5), necessitating good physical fitness. Expect uneven terrain, steep descents and ascents, and occasionally slippery areas. Hiking poles are provided free of charge upon request.

Unlike typical tours, this experience is entirely private and adaptable, with no set pace or large groups.

It offers a blend of activity and tranquility — an invigorating coastal hike followed by time to swim, unwind, and enjoy a light picnic at a secluded Atlantic cove.

This isn’t for everyone — and that’s precisely the appeal.
