Trail description

A section of the Rota Vicentina Fishermen's Trail from Odeceixe at the Algarve border down the Seixe river to the coast and south along the clifftops past the beaches of Esteveira, Samouqueira and Vale dos Homens before turning inland to the village of Rogil. Much of the path is soft sand, which makes the walking slower than the distance suggests.
