Camino de la sierra

Highlight • Climb

The slope is pleasant at first. Shortly before the end, before reaching the main road, you face a steep climb, most of it without refreshing shade. However, there is very little traffic. If you're going downhill, it's a joy.

View of the Bravura Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Bravura Dam stretches across a vast expanse of water that reflects the Algarve sky. On intensely hot days, the water level drops, revealing the riverbed, sometimes even with cattle grazing where there was once water.
