Itinerary description

The track starts with a walk uphill on a combination of main road and dirt roads. There are some very nice views over the valley. At the point where the road divides in two (338 and 339) there are great panoramic views to Torre. From the junction the first short stretch is on the main road (towards Manteiga), then onto PR7 on a sandy road. The views are nice all along. At the point where the trail takes a left turn towards Manteiga, you can choose to continue straight if you want to pass the Poco do Infierno.
