Itinerary description
Praia do Magoito to Cabo da Roca
The views are stunning throughout. Could be done in a shorter amount of time than listed, but we spent time on beaches, eating, enjoying views. We took a cab to Magoito and there are plenty of buses departing Cabo da Roca to get back to Sintra city center at the end of the hike.
The trail is relatively simple for the first portion of the hike. We started the hike in the morning and had lunch (which we brought) overlooking Praia Grande.
The hike becomes a bit more difficult (steep) as you near Praia da Ursa.
The trail shown goes inland after Praia da Ursa right as you near Cabo da Roca. It would have been better to stay on the coast past Praia da Aroeira.

Approx 5 hour hike if you do not stop to sightsee. Moderate hike for first 2/3, gains difficulty in final few miles.

A maior parte do percursos não está marcado mas os caminhos são bem visíveis no terreno. O trajeto é duro pois há trechos com declives muito acentuados. As paisagens são magníficas... O lugar é mágico e riquíssimo...
