A Rocky single track route that slightly extends the existing trail for a more exciting and adventurous hike. Suitable for anyone with steady feet, it’s a beautiful way to explore the caves and sloping hills around the river valley.

Just after leaving the car park, on the Fonte Benémola route, this beautiful dirt road opens. It's a very peaceful place to run. The views are inspiring and encourage long journeys.
