Cascais  >  Portugal

Nice walk just north of Cascais. The trail runs parallel with a small stream and small cliffs.

Description

Parque das Penhas do Marmeleiro has wooden walkways and a viewpoint. From there you can make a nice walk along Ribeira do Marmeleiro. You can also start the walk from the other side. The small stream and the low cliffs are a good habitat for several species like výr velký, puštík obecný, káně lesní and jestřáb lesní to name just a few. The trail is very easy.
