Your Itinerary
Cabo da Roca
Cabo da Roca is a wild and rugged headland that marks the most westerly point of mainland Europe. The windswept cliffs of Cape Rock were believed to be the edge of the world up until the late 14th century and the spectacular, desolate scenery adds to the allure of the location. The raging Atlantic Ocean waves pound the base of the massive jagged cliffs while challenging hiking trails follow the coastal paths. The isolated atmosphere of Cabo da Roca is enhanced by the very limited development in the area; there is a lighthouse, coffee shop and gift shop but nothing much else. This wind blasted and dramatic landscape is the attraction and this is what most visitors expect for the western edge Europe or end of the world.
Praia da Adraga
The Adraga Beach is one of the most popular beaches by those who enjoy coming to Sintra's seashore. At the Southern slope of this beach you might find the famous Judgment Rock, a rock that descends vertically to the sea. According to the legend, climbing and descending this rock was a way of the lesser evils proving their braveness. At about 50 meters from the top you could find the Fojo, a deep well communicating with the sea.
Centro Historico de Sintra
Sintra is a delightful Portuguese town that is situated within the hills of the Serra de Sintra. Hidden within these pine covered hills are extravagant palaces, opulent mansions and the ruins of an ancient castle. The variety of fascinating historic buildings and enthralling attractions, combine to form a fantastic tourist destination. Sintra is considered the best day trip from Lisbon, and a visit to this wonderful town.
Park and National Palace of Pena
The National Palace of Pena is one of the finest tourist attractions in Portugal and exemplifies the 19th century Romanticism style of architecture. The palace is a hedonistic mix of vividly painted terraces, decorative battlements and mythological statues, all of which stand at stark contrast to the lush greens of the Parque de Pena forest. The interior of the Pena Palace is equally fascinating, being restored to reflect the decor in 1910, when the Portuguese nobility fled to Brazil to escape the revolution. Surrounding the Palacio da Pena are forested grounds, which continue the ideal design of Romanticism, with hidden pathways, mystical ornaments and stunning views.
