    Sadly the well walked trail ended at a barbed wire fence which had been crawled under by piggies so we ended up doing the same so we could continue on the trail

    The hike starts from the village of Alte. I would recommend to leave the car by the cemetery where in a short walk you get to the first beautiful spot: the waterfall. Waterfall must be visited in winter/spring season wh...

    Start and end in Alte. The hike takes you through the town, then via a dry riverbed (at the moment, in May) up to the hill. The trail up is beautiful, but near the top we were stopped by a farmer who refused to let us co...

    Starting on a marked trail, then turning off on a small trail into the landscape. Beautiful here, with evidence of lots of wild boar activity. Then going into more small road walking.

    Percurso não sinalizado. Passa por algumas aldeias circundantes de Alte, trilhos rurais e trilho de caçadores. Ponto alto, fonte de Alte e a cascata de Vigário.

    C'est une rando très variée avec de sublimes paysages.
