Beautiful
hiking
trail!
The
views
were
stunning.
We
walked
from
Carvoeiro
to
Praia
de
Marinha.
There
are
a
few
trail
markings
(yellow
and
red
parallel
lines
-
if
they're
in
a
cross
shape,
you're
going
the
wrong
way!).
However
occasionally
it
was
a
bit
confusing
to
know
which
way
to
go
(although
luckily
the
trail
is
pretty
popular
so
you
can
often
just
watch
where
other
people
are
going..!)
It
unexpectedly
rained
on
the
trail
while
we
were
walking,
which
was
a
little
scary
because
the
trail
became
a
bit
slippery,
and
some
of
the
trail
is
just
loose
gravel
pathways
right
next
to
huge
cliffs.
We
just
stopped
for
awhile
and
then,
after
the
rain
stopped,
took
it
very
slowly
and
carefully
until
the
sun
dried
the
trail
again.
Ideally
you
need
a
moderate
level
of
fitness
because
you
need
to
occasionally
scramble
up/down
rocks
etc.
Wear
good
shoes,
bring
a
rain
jacket
or
little
umbrella,
a
hat,
sunscreen,
lots
of
water,
a
few
snacks.
Might
also
want
to
bring
a
towel
and
swimmers
if
you
want
to
have
a
swim
at
one
of
the
beaches.
We
bought
some
sandwiches
but
there
are
also
places
to
eat
along
the
way
(eg,
"O
Stop"
at
Praia
de
Vale
Centeanes).
There
are
toilets
at
Praia
de
Vale
Centeanes,
Benagil,
and
Praia
de
Marinha.
We
planned
to
get
a
taxi/rideshare
from
Benagil,
however
by
the
time
we
were
leaving
(around
6pm),
everyone
else
at
the
beach
wanted
to
get
a
lift
home
too,
so
we
got
a
bit
stranded.
We
ended
up
walking
about
30
minutes
up
the
road
and
ended
up
managing
to
get
an
Uber
eventually.
