The walk of the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail is breathtaking, unforgettable, has been considered as one of the most beautiful hikes in Europe and accessible to all ages. You can start the walk at the chapel Senhora da Rocha and end at the Carvoeiro beach. During your walk you can observe the fauna and flora, beautiful birds and even little rabbits.
