In this paper a systematic study of the causal structure and global causality properties of multiwarped spacetimes is developed. This analysis is used to make a detailed description of the causal boundary of these spacetimes. Some applications of our results in examples of physical interest, for instance, in the context of Maldacena's conjecture, are considered.
