Climbing in Azoia - Sesimbra (Cova Mijona)


During the pandemic years, 2020-2021-2022, I took the advantage to travel more in Portugal and to get to known the Portuguese climbing spots. This is Cova Mijona in Azoia, Sesimbra. It is a hidden place, only accessible by a small path in the middle of the vegetation. It leads to these beautiful caves. Even though, the site is not just by the road, it easily accessible for those used to hill walking. It is usually fairly popular among foreign people. We have met there french, italian, spanish people. As the bottom is safe, we have met parents with small children as well. There are easy, intermediate and difficult routes, so this area is suitbale for all types of climbers. It is in the shade in the afternoon, so it is a perfect spot for a hot summer's day.
