Pedestrian trail, but that can be done by bicycle (MTB recommended). In rainy weather it can be difficult to do. Depending on the degree of experience, in some small sections you may have to dismount and push the bike. The trail runs along the mouth of the river Zêzere, on the opposite bank to Vila de Constância. It's very shady and nice to do. This trail is part of the Tagus Panoramic Trail, which in turn is part of the Great Tagus Route (GR12)
