Itinerary description
A lovely well marked circular trail starting / finishing in the historical Aldeia da Pena.
Best to complete this trail when its not over hot, or after periods of rain which could make it more difficult, therefore May or October would perhaps be best.
Through agricultural and forest trails, crossing over river bridges; with sections of roads providing some spectacular views of the surrounding hills, but other areas of loose slate mean you have to watch your footing.
We were unable to Record the final approach to the Aldeia da Pena (battery problem), and to find our way through this final part proved a little complicated (not impossible) due to locked gates.
Would highly recommend you try this trail (12.5 kms) but be prepared for a difficult section of climbing loose slate in the last few kms.
Rated: 4.5 / 5
Moderate - (Difficult, slate climb at the end)
