Overview
Starting at ATTE facilities torwards east/north for about 6 kms when we pass the pena mills, an area with stunning views to the south and where on cleaner days we can see the ocean. We will then enter a private property, Qtª do freixo, where we will enjoy rolling tracks until we cross the asphalt at km 11 to continue through very mixed and rolling tracks to reach the village of Sarnadas where we will head south, west in the direction of Alte, by tracks a little more technical and difficult up to a very slope climb, but our e-bikes make it with relative ease to the highest point of the route, "Rocha dos Soidos" at about 425 m altitude.
Then we start the descent to alte on tracks with a harder tread and with a lot of stone. We arrive at alte next to the famous crystal clear water fountains and where the small river with the same name forms like a river "beach". we will then pass inside the village of Alte to begin the return to benafim on rolling tracks, ending our tour again at ATTE workshop.
