This sector starts in a relatively flat area, passing the Eira de Agosto windmill. You then descend towards Carrascalinho, along a tree-lined and attractive ravine.

It is worth stopping on the banks of the Seco River for a break and to mark the forthcoming start of the Barrocal region where a change in landscape can be seen, particularly due to the presence of large dry farming fields.

Ancient walled roads soon make their presence felt, along with scattered houses in a dense Almond grove, until reaching Salir.

In the springtime this is also one of the best areas for orchid lovers, as this is when they are in flower.
