It is beautiful of course. Lovely beaches and trees. Nice roads. However, we didnt manage to do any particular walking because of the off-putting info on the internet. Lots of people complain that paths are either overgrown with brambles and you risk catching ticks OR run mostly along the roads which is no fun.There is a surprising lack of designated paths if you check the official list of path on the website of the municipality of Setúbal. I know places in Portugal which are much smaller in terms of the overall area with more paths. The municipality of Setúbal needs to up their game and make it a more attractive and safe place to walk. Create more circular paths which could also run across the lovely vineyards so people can appreciate the beauty of this countryside.

Stunning park in Setubal! Such a massive park you need a few hours to walk the trails and visit. The beaches around Setubal are spectacular! Feels like youre going down south on vacation. The water is clear, not many waves, and the sand is nice and clean!

We had a great time at arrabida national park.The meeting point with "Day dream..." was a little hard to find but we found it. Be sure to arrange your transportation back because it was really hard to find UBER or Bolt services from Sesimbra.The guide was really kind & overall was really fun.

A beautiful place to hike or do trail runs. There are both hilly and flat paths. It is a great park to explore and some of the views are incredible.

A fantastically beautiful place. Galapos beach, sorry if misspelt is stunning! And its an hour away from Lisbon. Driving along the mountain road to the top as great views and places to stop and look. The place looks like Monaco, well worth a visit.

The place is great but the trails are not maintained properly and ate really bushy and in disarray in some places. The cliff part is not properly signaled and proper warning should be in place. Natural diversity of plants is great, not many birds though.

Stunning range of rugged steeply forested peaks that fall away to beautiful white sand beaches and azure ocean.....lovely secluded villages like Portinho are a joy for lunch, and pathways will give you breathtaking views of the many bays.

Lovely place to go for a hiking, just make sure you go when the sun is not so hot. It has one of the best views from the south of Lisbon.

My favourite place in Portugal. Beautiful landscapes and peaceful surroundings. Amazing beaches as well, some of the best in the world on my opinion. But beware that the water is a bit on the cold side.I ride my motorbike to chill and this area is a must to relax and enjoy the scenery. You can even see the Tróia peninsula in the other side of Sado.Just outside of this place you have Setúbal which is a lovely city with amazing fish restaurants. And dont forget to try the traditional fried cuttlefish (I recommend Santiago restaurantand the famous pastel de nata or Azeitão rolls (tartes de Azeitão).

Amazing views from high cliffs on open ocean. Too much trash, very sad. Nobody takes care of park, nobody cleans it, or keeps trails in shape. Nature takes over since not too many people like to walk in nature here, so trails and often hard to pass (bushes with thorns leave slight space to go through).

Great place to spend the day. Easy access from Lisbonne. Train from Lisbone to Sebutal. Took a Uber to get to galapos Beach and from there did a trek on the diferentes beaches along the day. The water is really nice. Lots of Stand up paddle renting place.

One of the wonders of the world ❤️ The Douro Valley has its vines, Sintra has its castles and the Algarve has its coastline but in the dramatic Arrábida Natural Park on the Setúbal Peninsula, just a stones throw from Lisbon, youll find all that, along with an abundant harvest from both sea and land, and as yet, its virtually undiscovered.

Wonderful beach with clear water and stunning views. No amenities so take all you need with you. Its an unsupervised beach with no lifeguards and the access to the beach is through a dirt track, very steep and definitely only for people with full mobility and good general health. You need to jump, climb, pull yourself holding onto branches and rocks. I normally walk about 12 miles a day and am in good health and found it difficult to get down to it. Coming back up was surprisingly a bit easier. Also no signage and one can easily get lost wondering around the dense scrub vegetation. To me it was well worth it though, its very beautiful. You can get there by taxi boat from Sesimbras harbor too.

One of the most extraordinary places on the planet! A paradise beach called Praia da Ribeira do Cavalo, on the coast of Sesimbra, surrounded by all wonders of pure nature. A wishlist ToDo! Visit Portugal

Beautiful area of natural beauty, right outside Lisbon and Setúbal. Had a hire car which is essential to really get around. Basically there’s a high road and a low road, the high one has sweeping views at every turn and offers nice lay-bys in which you can stop and take pictures. The low road takes you along the small cliff past the variety of beaches that line the shore. A nice excursion from the city if you have the transport.

Beautiful park with the most amazing beaches of Portugal. The water is clear and the sand is gold.. They dont want cars in the area, so theres a free shuttle bus to the three smaller beaches. Its easiest to just take the bus from Setúbal.

Beautiful park, pretty drive. Nice beaches, but a bit of a walk to get there. Small town Portinho has a few great places to get fresh fish, though you might have to order in Portuguese in some of them.

What a wonderful area!Golden tip: take a rental car and just drive around on the beautiful roads in this area, there is a magnificent coastline road.More towards Lissabon itself you’ll find huge forests.Not really considered as a parc though because it is just a nature area.Possibly by hiking as well ofcourse, but equally beautiful by car.

Unspoilt, unique, authentic.This is not to miss if you visit Portugal. The colour of the water is a turquoise that you’d only expect in the Mediterranean Sea, such enchanting views as you drive or walk along the coast.

Sesimbra is nearled in the heart of this national park. The whole eco system is protected, hence no fishing inside buoys due to monitored fish feeding grounds. Outstanding clean beaches dotted along this coastline, the better onea you have to put some effort into getting to but the effort is justly rewarded. Take diving, fishing or kayaking amongst other activities in this region you even get to see thw dolphins.
