Lost Paths of the Mountains
From 09:30 to 13:30
Circular route along abandoned paths and trails in the Serra de Espinhaço de Cão. We'll start at the Barão São João Forest Perimeter, heading north and east, and return to the village. Along the route, you can see stunning and contrasting landscapes: the vegetation, wind turbines and the typical landscape of the Algarve mountains, characterised by a succession of hills and valleys covered with Mediterranean scrub, rockroses, strawberry trees (arbutus), cork oaks, pines and small water reservoirs.
NOTE: Bring comfortable clothes and shoes for walking, walking sticks, water and a packed lunch.
How to get there
By car: Arriving in the city of Lagos, at the Municipal Stadium roundabout, head towards Bensafrim. At Portelas exit, take the EM 531 on the left towards Barão de São João, passing through the Monte Judeu site. Go straight ahead towards Barão de S. João, and after entering the village of Barão de São João you should follow the signs that indicate the Mata Nacional. The Cultural Center is located just before the forest entrance on the left.
