アルモドバルの天然記念物・トップ13

I did this route and I recommend it. 👍🥾

This measuring point marks the highest point of the Rocha da Pena at 479 metres above sea level. The view is simply fantastic in clear weather and extends southwards to the Atlantic coast.

Portugal is the world leader in cork production. More than 50% of the world's cork products come from Portugal. The south-west European climate is perfectly suited to this tree. That is why Portugal has a very high population of cork oaks.

The rock massif of Rocha dos Soidos rises about 10 km northeast of Alte. The 467 m high cliffs fall on the north side so the most beautiful view of the massif is from the north side.

The central portion of the Rocha da Pena route is a ridge where you can observe both the landscape to the north and the landscape to the south. It is possible to develop your run well at this point, paying attention to loose rocks and other irregularities in the ground.

Wonderful hiking route with nice views and places to rest. Small paths lead up and down the hill.

Wonderful little paths through the thicket. Sometimes you have to struggle through something. Sturdy shoes are definitely recommended. The descent in particular is otherwise not very safe.

Meanwhile, we know that the purest cork comes from the area north of Sao Bras de Alportel. The clean air here has a big impact on the quality. Only after nine years can the cork bark be peeled off the tree again.
