The Algarve is a true hiking paradise! Spring and autumn are the best seasons to explore the Algarve on foot. Hikes along the coast with its bizarre rock formations are an extraordinary experience. A particularly beautiful tour leads from Luz to Lagos - on narrow paths always along the cliffs with spectacular views, including the famous rock formation Ponta da Piedade.

Church of Our Lady of Light of Lagos

Highlight • Religious Site

The church of Luz dates from 1521. Inside, the finely designed main altar made of gilded wood fascinates.
