The Walk
Challenging walk to the Porta do Vento
This circular walk is based on the Ecopista track & starts near Bezzera at the location of the old railway station & football field.
The walk start on the easy track. We then ascend to explore the hills with good views across the valley. Returning to the main track – we walk to the end with views to Porto de Mos. A 2nd short ascent takes us to the feature Doorway, before completing the circuit back to the start point.
Optional-coffee/Lunch in Porto de Mos-after the walk (see info below)
