This stop on the Ecopista is important because it also marks the start of a beautiful walking trail 👣👣 PR18 - VildeMoinhos and its stories (VIS)🇵🇹. In fact, the trail begins a little earlier, in the large parking lot near the intersection between Dão Ecopista and Quinta Belém. It begins by crossing the public gardens before entering the Ecopista, a common pedestrian and cycling path. Follow this eco-trail for 1,400 meters until turning left at Santarinho.

Tondela is located approximately halfway along the Ecopista, which runs for almost 50 km between Viseu and Santa Comba Dão. The section of the Ecopista that passes through the municipality of Tondela is characterized by green asphalt, distinguishing it from the other sections. The old Tondela station is a fascinating element of the Ecopista do Dão, a reminder of the region's railway history.

This tunnel dives directly into the rock, creating a cool and suggestive passage. You pedal on a well-maintained asphalt and inside the tunnel the lighting is good.
