Ponta da Piedade clifftop boardwalk
Ponta da Piedade · Estrada da Ponta da Piedade, 8600 Lagos
The 4 km wooden boardwalk along the Ponta da Piedade limestone cliffs is the most spectacular dog walk on the western Algarve. Fenced lookouts open onto sea caves, rock arches and turquoise coves; the entire route is on-leash, year-round free, and largely shaded at dawn.
💡 Walk at sunrise or one hour before sunset; midday in July-August has zero shade and limestone radiates heat dangerously for dog paws.
