Swing of Casal do Pitagudo: The Panoramic Viewpoint of Leiria

Located on the Cliffs of Maceira, in the region of Leiria, the Swing of Casal do Pitagudo is more than just a simple swing. This tourist spot serves as a panoramic viewpoint that offers an unparalleled view over Porto Novo and Santa Rita beaches. It's a place that awakens feelings of freedom and serenity as you sway in the sea breeze. Truly, the end result of this project is spectacular.

Access and Location

Access to the swing may be challenging for those with limited mobility, but for those who manage to get to the top of the cliffs, the reward is a breathtaking view. Located about 60 km from Lisbon, the Swing of Casal do Pitagudo is located in the locality of Pitagudo, which is part of the Union of Parishes of A dos Cunhados and Maceira, in the municipality of Torres Vedras. This region has an area of about 52 km² and an approximate population of 10,400 inhabitants.

Beaches and Surroundings

In addition to the swing, the area boasts about 20 km of golden sands and beautiful beaches, shared with the parishes of Silveira and São Pedro da Cadeira. During the bathing season, the number of people on the beaches between Santa Cruz and Porto Novo triples, thanks to the return of immigrants and the occupation of the numerous existing holiday homes.

What Else to Visit in the Municipality

The municipality of Torres Vedras has much more to offer besides this splendid attraction. The city is rich in historical heritage, with various castles and fortifications dating back to the period of the Reconquista and the Lines of Torres Vedras, a set of military fortifications erected to protect Lisbon during the Peninsular Wars.

For nature lovers, the region offers various outdoor activity options, from hiking to cycling, through bird watching. With a diversity of natural landscapes, from beaches to mountains and vineyards, Torres Vedras is an excellent choice for those looking for a complete tourist experience.
