Portuguese version of the page

On this cycling route, we leave Nisa and enter the heart of Alto Alentejo via municipal roads and dirt tracks until we reach Póvoa e Meadas. From here, it is pure Alentejo, with granite landscapes that take your breath away until we reach Beirã, the old border station of the Cáceres branch. We continue to Stº António das Areias and start the climb of the Sapoio mountain range up to Marvão, visible on the top. Here the landscape becomes more humanized, and we encounter chestnut groves within the cork oak forest. After the most technical stage, we arrive at the citadel of Marvão where we overnight. The following day, we enjoy the descent from Marvão to rest our legs and, upon arriving at the Roman city of Ammaia, we explore this millenary site. Continuing, we pass through the ash tree tunnel towards Castelo de Vide, and leaving it behind, we return to the Alentejo landscape en route to the Póvoa e Meadas dam. Nisa appears again on our horizon, and we conclude our trip with a dinner and farewell toast.
