Our personal experience of route:-
We
love this walk and often do parts of it as part of daily exercise. Due
to erosion the actual start now is further around through Monte
Carvoeiro
The
walk takes you past the amazing Praia de Vale de Lapa, that's the
biggest climb, also you past the Torre de Lapa, Praia Caneiros, the
lighthouse and then to Praia de Molhe (official end), which is worth a
walk along. You can then follow the path to the west past the
café/restaurant at the top and then walk Praia Grande Ferragudo, with
low tide you can go around the Castelo and walk to Ferragudo. Here you
can taxi/Bolt back to Carvoeiro
It is another stunning walk with lots of flowers, animals and great views to snap photos of. We recommend the trail to all our clients staying in one of our Carvoeiro villas.
