After the initial section as far as Unhais-o-Velho, shared by other routes, it follows the P20 for a little bit further before branching off to follow the Unhais river upstream towards Meãs where it enters a small valley on an old trail. It climbs steeply out of the valley and then heads uphill towards Malhada do Rei. It carries on upwards to reach a maximum altitude of 1023m, with spectacular views over the dam area, then goes around the ridge for views of Aldeia do Xisto and Penedos de Fajão (Natura 2000 network), before descending towards Vidual de Cima, where you can link onto the P18 or continue towards Cabril and Vale Grande. From here there is an extraordinary view of the rocks bolstering the dam walls, before crossing the dam itself to finish the circuit.
