I was born and raised in Cascais, and this region has always been where I feel most at home, whether by the sea or in the mountains nearby. I started working as a sailing skipper at 18 and spent years guiding people on the water. Eventually, I found myself drawn back to the land, sharing the same passion for adventure through hiking, exploring, and discovering hidden places around Cascais and Sintra. After guiding for others, I decided it was time to do it on my own terms, creating adventures that feel personal, relaxed, and meaningful.

Route details

We'll begin our journey on a less-traveled trail, where nature takes the lead, with lush vegetation often lining the path. As we stroll along, we'll discover the native flora of this distinctive region. Before long, we'll arrive at my favorite segment of the trek—a ridge trail that presents lush surroundings and unobstructed views of the expansive sea. The cliffs dramatically plunge into the ocean, instilling a sense of awe and seclusion on this hidden gem.

As we follow the stunning coastline, we'll reach the famous Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Here, we'll share the legend of Cabo da Roca while soaking in the breathtaking panoramic views. After passing by its historic lighthouse, we'll proceed along a coastal path that leads us to Praia da Ursa, renowned as one of Portugal's most beautiful and untouched beaches.

At Praia da Ursa, you'll have the opportunity to take a swim if the conditions are right. We will then start our ascent back to where we began, enveloped by the vibrant colors of the sky reflecting off the cliffs and ocean, wrapping up our adventure with unforgettable memories.
