Seven Hanging Valleys Trail<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">When you're traveling through Portugal, you can't miss the famous Seven Hanging Valleys Trail.

Along the way, you'll enjoy spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and discover various unique rock formations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The hike also takes you past the famous Benagil Cave, one of Europe's most photographed sea caves.
