May 9, 2024,Ecopista de Berezza au départ de Porto de Mós

Demanding circuit which starts from the Porto de Mos castle to tackle a fairly steep climb to the start of the Ecopista de Berezza. This track was created on the old route of the railway line, the main means of transporting coal from the Bezerra mines to the thermoelectric power station. Today it has become a pedestrian and cycle path.

Easy eco-trail, even though it's a false path to Bezerra. The biggest difficulty on this route is the climb to the aerials to the swing, with a spectacular view. What follows is practically always going downhill back to the beginning of the eco-trail, passing at the foot of the mills.
