Coastal and lakeside walking holidays are among the most breathtaking forms of travel, where nature, landscapes and fresh air create an unforgettable experience. Seaside or lakeside hiking combines the tranquil water landscape with varied trails and different nature experiences, making it easy to relax and re-energise. At Bering Travel, we specialise in just such hiking holidays, and we make sure to create the perfect setting for a hassle-free journey where luggage is transported between accommodations and you can navigate easily with our app. Let's take a closer look at three particularly iconic coastal hikes that we can help you experience: The Fisherman's Trail in Portugal, the Portuguese Camino and hiking along the Amalfi Coast.

Walking holidays along lakes and oceans

Fisherman’s Trail in Portugal

The Fisherman's Trail is part of the Rota Vicentina, a route on the south-west coast of Portugal that stretches through the Alentejo and Algarve region. This route is known for its raw beauty, passing through coastal cliffs, isolated beaches and picturesque small towns. The Fisherman's Trail is a scenic yet challenging hiking route that requires you to be in good shape as the terrain alternates between rocky paths, sand and rocky coastal areas.

With Bering Travel, you can experience the Fisherman's Trail in a safe setup where we take care of all the practicalities. Your luggage is transported between your accommodations and we give you access to detailed directions in our app so you can concentrate on nature and the views. On the Fisherman's Trail, you'll experience not only the beauty of the coast, but also small Portuguese villages and authentic culture, far away from the noise of mass tourism.

The Portuguese Camino

The Portuguese Camino is one of the most beautiful pilgrimage routes in the world, stretching from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The route is both inland and coastal, but for those who want a maritime atmosphere, there is a special coastal version of the Camino that takes you along the Atlantic coast and through the northern part of Portugal.

Along the way you'll pass charming cities like Baiona and Vigo, and the beautiful coastline offers idyllic landscapes with expansive beaches, cliffs and fishing villages. The Portuguese Camino is known for its cultural heritage, with old churches and chapels scattered along the paths, inviting you to take a break. Bering Travel will guide you through this cultural and scenic route with luggage transport, selected accommodation and the option to navigate via the app so you can easily find your way and experience the coast at your own pace.

The Amalfi Coast in Italy

The Amalfi Coast is one of Italy's most popular coastal destinations, and for good reason. This UNESCO World Heritage site boasts dramatic rock formations, clear blue waters and the charming villages that hang on the slopes. Walking holidays along the Amalfi Coast are for those who love the combination of natural beauty and culture as the trails take you through lemon orchards, vineyards and past ancient monasteries and churches.

A walking holiday along the Amalfi Coast with Bering Travel allows you to explore famous places like Positano, Ravello and Amalfi. The trails here can range from easy walks through the villages to more challenging hikes on trails that climb high above the coast with stunning views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. We'll organise your luggage transport and find accommodation in charming hotels and guesthouses so you can focus on enjoying the spectacular views, Italian cuisine and unique atmosphere.
