Itinerary description
Start and end in Torres Vedras by the train station.
Move forward the pedreira, arriving next to the eucalyptus forest, follow for the vale escuro (rocky and under the shadows of the trees) and reach up to some old ruins and a windmill.
Going back down through a not very maintained goat trail, lots of thorns so trousers recommended. (Possibility to go down from the windmill using a more maintained path otherwise).
Reaching the highway and making a move towards the railway that must be crossed.
Coming back through the cucos, crossing two old watermills and the old Therms.
Following the river Sizandro on the way back to Torres Vedras.
