    Mixed. The morning is a long and hard climb on a cobbled road, rather dreary at the beginning. You only have to do it once.The muletrack descent from Pico da Cruz is pleasant and easy riding (though not often paved) as f...

    Not a successful ride. We‘d planned to follow the official Route 313 but at Baboso (a delightful oasis) found a tethered donkey on our path. It panicked as we approached, threatening to plummet into the ravine, and there...

    An excellent ride. Attractive bleak scenery on the rough road from the bivio to the hamlet where you turn onto the mule track. From here it’s hard going until you come to the crest. There follows a spectacular zigzag des...

    The path follows an attractive course and isn’t at all scary, but the surface is poor and we pushed most of the way. We had misty weather so can’t comment on the views.

    Seen from below the route looks impossibly precipitous but in fact it’s perfectly safe. The surface isn’t good and the conditions were poor when we were there, so we didn’t ride much. Perhaps another time we’ll feel more...
