葡萄牙徒步Seven Hanging Valleys Trail @Carvoeiro
Carvoeiro，在这里住了两夜(6/7-6/9)，现在又忘了怎么念它了，当时在当地特意去问当地人怎么发音的。那么怎么会去这个连地名都不会说的地方呢？都是因为这条步道, Seven Hanging Valleys Trail, 号称是Algarve的最美步道，就这么被吸引去了。和Lagos一样，Carvoeiro也是Algarve地区的一个旅游小镇, 当公车驶进这小镇时，感觉发现了新大陆，这个小镇真是漂亮，处处是豪宅，游客相对也少一些，比Lagos好多了。到了海边，更是眼睛一亮，原来景色最美的海滩在这里。
P1, 景色最美的海滩是哪个？Praia da Marinha。Praia是葡萄牙语的beach海滩的意思。记得那天看到这景色，连连赞叹，一激动就发了个微信moment，等于现场直播。好几位资深欧洲通的朋友都惊呼这个地方没来过，它的visibility有待提高啊！
那广告做的最凶的岩洞，Benagil Cave也在这里。所以去葡萄牙南部，不要miss这个地方，这里物价也贵，和景色成正比。总的印象，比Lagos好很多。交通工具，最好要租车，它有公车但是班次很少，或者就像咱这样利用公车+开动自己的双脚。
P2, Seven Hanging Valleys Trail这步道，参考网上这介绍。Praia da Marinha – Praia de Benagil – Alfanzina Lighthouse – Carvalho Beach – Praia de Vale Centianes，图中蓝色那段，很好走的。红色那条的景色比它差一些，下篇再看。
P3, 继续大西洋的海岸线，看图说话...看看途中的步道和风景, Praia da Mesquita, 和Praia da Marinha紧挨着，排排坐。公车站和趴车场都是用Marinha名字，所以记住Marinha就行。
P4, Praia da Marinha，大的沙滩
P5, Praia da Mesquita
P6, Arco Natural Mesquita
P7, 这条步道的学名，PR1 LGA
P8, 各种水上运动
P9, 悬崖的上方就是步道
P10,
P11,
P12, Benagil Cave，从上面看的。
P13, Benagil Cave，想从下面望上看洞洞，要搭船进去，这也是那铺天盖地的广告宣传的地方。咱村也有类似的岩洞，潮水低的时候随便走进都可以看，所以没有强烈愿望搭船进洞了。
P14, Praia de Benagil，那个红顶白墙蓝窗口的房子是一个餐馆，这条步道下到这个海滩后，要爬上，通过这个餐馆再继续往前...
P15, Praia de Benagil
P16, Praia de Benagil
P17, Carvalho Beach
P18, Alfanzina Lighthouse
P19, Praia de Vale Centianes
P20,
P21,
P22, Carvoeiro beach
P23, 步道的终点就进入Carvoeiro小镇，就几条街，我们顺便也逛遍，买了冰激凌和一些食物。这里消费高，物价贵，越发怀念走Fishermen's的那些小渔村！
P24, 往回走...我们住的地方在Marinha那边，所以这条走了来回。
P25,
PS, 前些日子看到Lonely Planet的这篇介绍，这条也是榜上有名的.
Seven Hanging Valleys Trail ~~ Best walk along sea cliffs ,5.7km (3.5 miles) one-way, 2-3 hours
The central coast of the Algarve is the starting point for one of the loveliest seaside walks in the Iberian peninsula. Multi-colored rock formations, the scent of the salt-tinged air, and the sound of crashing waves all set the stage for an immersive hike along coastal cliffs. The light is most impressive in the early morning or late in the day, but in truth, there’s no bad time to go. Even if you go in the heat of the day, you can cool off at beaches along the way (or wait until lovely Praia da Marinha at the end of the trail).
Don’t miss key photo opportunities, like the Alfanzina lighthouse or the wind-carved arches jutting into the ocean at Praia da Mesquita. The walk also passes over the Benagil Caves, but if you want to see the spectacular interior, head down to Praia de Benagil where you can arrange a boat trip.
