The hiking trail PRC39 SMI starts at the upper parking lot and you walk first downhill and later up again.
He shows the ruins of the first hydroelectric power plants. Jodé Cordeiro has initiated the beginning of ecological power generation here.
Fábrica da Cidade and Fábrica da Vila together with associated reservoirs.
At the end you can visit Fábrica da Praia, today a museum.

You can not see the Fábrica Central Nova above the trail. This is still in operation today. All roads have been completed.

The hiking trail is highly recommended, even if the way there and back are identical. You can learn a lot about energy production in the past via narrow paths.
