- Cabo Espichel - Our journey starts at the sanctuary of Espichel Cape, where you’ll visit the small Memory chapel, the church, the old hostels, Casa da Ópera, the aqueduct, and Casa da Água. This site is a rare example of a monumental sanctuary designed for religious pilgrimages, featuring a unique architectural complex in Portugal. On the promontory, on a ledge of the Jurassic cliffs at the mysterious Espichel Cape, the second westernmost cape in Europe, discover incredible dinosaur footprints. These ichnofossils, left by sauropods and theropods about 150 million years ago, are found in a location that is both isolated and desolate. The area’s lush and vigorous vegetation is nearly impenetrable, and the promontory’s aridness makes it uninhabitable, yet people are drawn to its frontier-like and mysterious nature.

Explore the uniquely intriguing Espichel Cape, positioned on the edges of Jurassic cliff. Being the second most western cape of Europe, it proudly showcases the astonishing dinosaur footprints. These are ichnofossils from tracks left by saurops and theropods, approximately 150 million years ago. A place that distinctly combines isolation and insulation, barrenness and roughness where the lush, thriving wilderness of the mountain is virtually impenetrable by humans. The sheer aridity of the promontory renders it uninhabitable. Yet, its enigmatic and frontier-like nature has drawn people towards it.
