Join Lagoa Swimrun 2026
May marks the return of the #swimrun to the magnificent Algarve coast for the 5th edition of the Lagoa Swimrun. It's chosen by all #swimrunners as one of our best courses, with fantastic swims and breathtaking coastal views, though the race proved very challenging depending on the wind and weather.
Starting at the Chapel of Our Lady of the Rock, the athletes will traverse the trails of the 7 Hanging Valleys route, recently elected as the best hiking destination in Europe, with breathtaking views, passing at the end along the Promontories Path, arriving at the picturesque fishing village of Ferragudo.
Along the way, you will see countless cliffs and bluffs, rock formations sculpted in a variety of shapes, and explore a handful of paradisiacal beaches and caves, some of which can only be accessed by sea, such as the Benagil Cave, or through tunnels carved into impressive sinkholes (natural wells that connect the surface of limestone regions to underground galleries), as is the case at Carvalho Beach. This trip also includes a mandatory stop at the iconic Caneiros Beach, the Algarve's picture-perfect spot.
Outside of the summer floods, this will once again be a unique opportunity for everyone to discover and explore this beautiful route, with spring in full swing and an average water temperature of 18 degrees.
