This ecopista (old railway turned into cycling path) goes from the city of Montemor-o-novo to Torre de gadanha, which is just a train station where trains don't stop anymore. The track is paved until km4, from where turns to a compact gravel. The landscape is of montado (typical landscape of Alentejo region) with lots of cork trees shadowing the path (which is desirable in this hot region). There is a café next to an old train station of Paião at km8, but the rest of the ecopista is pretty isolated with no water or other services along the way. It is best done on spring when the fields are still green and flowers blossoming. Cattle can also be seen along the way (sheeps, horses and cows).
