This is an incredible five day cliff walking, through single tracks along the coast line which can only be travelled by foot! A challenge and a permanent contact with the ocean winds, the harsh coastal scenery and the wild and powerful natural landscape.

Day 5: Touril to Brejão. Coastal Hiking (15km, +350m)
It’s a beautiful walk along the cliffs with great views, heading to Zambujeira do Mar a very know village from the region inside this Natural Park we´ve been crossing. Desert little beaches with nearly no access and some with the access of ropes used by the local fisherman to catch sea-food. And nests of storks all along the coastline as we walk through the single tracks made by the fisherman. It is a contrast of colors very typical of this wild coast still very preserved.

Hey Antonio!!! I already miss the wonderful adventure we had!!! never seen such beautiful beaches, and what an intense ocean, overwhelming and breath taking!!!
We felt really safe with the aid of the gps, no need for maps, and the 24-7 hour cell phone. Single tracks, cliff walking, long beaches, amazing colors, I wish we could do one like this every year, we will definitely come back for more adventure, we wanna go all the way down!! well done!!!
