Portugal: Trip to the End of the World
6 - 12 Mar 2027
This rewarding trek in south-west Portugal leads us to Cape St Vincent, the dramatic southwestern tip of mainland Europe.
We follow the Vicentina coastline with its remote beaches, colourful cliffs, and pounding Atlantic surf; far from the tourist resorts of the south. Inland, we pass farms and fishing villages that bring cultural variety.
With daily climbs over rugged headlands and descents into hidden bays, this windswept wilderness offers a challenging yet unforgettable adventure.
