About this experience
Hello, everyone! Welcome to our Benagil Treasure Hiking Experience.
Pets are Welcome !!!! I make a few stops along the way to take some fantastic photos!
Let's walk over the cliffs of Praia da Marinha, included in the Michelin guide: 24 million years old where you can find the beautiful photo of the Titanic, the heart and the bridge - 1st Treasure.
After that we will visit the top of the Benagil Cave a 16 million years old cave. From the top you can see the interior of the cave bath by the sea. 2nd Treasure.
The 3rd Treasure includes a visit to Algarseco. There you can visit the Boneca Cave and its recesses carved out by seawater, located on the trail of the seven hanging valley.
For some timeout let's visit Praia da Senhora da Rocha and Nova Beach. The 4th Treasure. There you can visit a 16th century small chapel built on top of a cliff and a tunnel connecting the two beaches through the rock. If the weather and the sea permits you can swim, relax and/or walk along the cliffs.
