Always along the sea
CYCLING ROUTE: CASCAIS - GUINCHO BEACH
It is the oldest bike path in the county and also the most sought after by cyclists. It is about nine kilometers long, starting at Cascais Marina and ending at Guincho beach, covered almost exclusively parallel to the sea. Do not miss: The Guia Lighthouse, one of the most iconic lighthouses in Portugal, where you can enjoy a privileged view of the ocean and the Cabo Raso Lighthouse.
Horseback Riding
The Oitavos has unique conditions for riding around the property, taking advantage not only of our 70ha piece of land, as well as all its surroundings classified as National Ecological Reserve.
Enjoy riding a horse in one of the most beautiful landscapes of the sea and the mountains. The Equestrian Center, only 5 minutes away from the hotel, has a variety of activities for all ages and experience levels.
