Dog walks in Ericeira & Mafra
Come walk with us in Ericeira.
Free community meetups for dogs and humans who enjoy calm routes, coastal air and good company.
A group walk, not a free-for-all
Let’s Paws Together is a local group for people who want to walk their dogs with others—without turning every meetup into a chaotic play session. We walk together, leave room between dogs and make space for different personalities. Read our community dog walk safety guidelines before your first meetup.
Most walks last around an hour, but the route and pace depend on the weather, terrain and dogs joining that day.
Where we walk
Beaches around Ericeira
Wide sand gives dogs room to decompress. Long lines may be suitable where conditions and local rules allow.
Open and forest trails
Quieter routes are great for sniffing, steady movement and dogs who find busy areas difficult.
Coastal and cliff paths
Beautiful, exposed routes that call for regular leashes, careful spacing and extra awareness near edges.
What to bring
- A secure leash; a long line when the route is suitable
- Water for you and your dog
- Waste bags
- Treats if they help your dog focus
- Honest information about anything your dog finds difficult
