I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Rota Vicentina. From start (I started in Lagos) to finish (from Porto Covo, I went to Cercal, then Odemira), I went from one outstanding place to another magnificent place. This trail must be one of the most beautiful trails in the world ... rich in amazingness and abundant in nature. Beauty never ends ... from the golden cliffs and fine sandy beaches, to the wildlife and wildflowers that abound, to the wild ocean surfs, the trees, the farm animals .... wow, wow, wow. I must say that there were sections that I had to navigate really carefully, as the path was precarious especially on the hills and cliffs. Some trails were overgrown but I think Portugal wants to keep as many areas as untouched as possible. Countless times along the trail, my spirits were uplifted, I shed many tears silently, for the overwhelming feeling of gratitude to the Creator of this all. Even heading inland, through the cork forests and hills of the Alentejo region, it was the same magnificent experience. I stopped so many times just because I had to enjoy the moment and the beauty around me. I loved each little hamlet and town that I went through. I wished that I had stayed longer in each town to just enjoy its local culture and food. It took me 14 days to finish hiking on this trail and everyday was, indeed, a blessing.

It is just one of those sites that is worth visiting, not only for itself but also for the journey there, to really understand the landscape. And to see how over the millennia this river has carved a deep valley in this landscape, the same on both sides of the river, and also how tiny it must be today compared to the days before the dams . the whole valley must once have been filled with a roaring stream of water. We were lucky to see int at the end of two intense raining weeks, with a lot more raring water than the average visitor and completely different scenery than the other pictures posted here.

We stumbled across this area by chance. We had chosen a place to stay for the night and decided to go out and explore. We found some great trails to walk and mountain bike and were fascinated by the eagles. We counted over 40 in the sky several times during our stay.
