Walking in Lisbon
Lisbon is a city of steep lanes, tiled façades and miradouros (viewpoints) over the river. Its old quarters are best explored slowly, on foot, with the occasional tram ride uphill.
Hills. Very steep in Alfama, Chiado and Bairro Alto; flat in the Baixa and along the river. Climb early, and plan routes that finish downhill.
Closures. As of September 2026, the Glória, Bica and Lavra funiculars and the Santa Justa lift were not carrying passengers. The Graça funicular reopened on 30 April 2026. Older guides and maps may still show the others as running, so check with Carris.
