The colours of the land highlight the fabulous biodiversity between the Barrocal region and Serra do Caldeirão. On roads with good surfaces and little traffic, we start to climb from São Brás de Alportel to Corotelo. São Romão and Alportel are two districts to be conquered before joining the mythical EN 2 - the longest road in Portugal, which rises continuously as far as Barranco do Velho. An entertaining merry-go-round of ups and downs takes you through Javali and to the peak of Cova da Muda. Pause at this natural lookout to appreciate the landscape of practically the whole district, and get ready for the descent. The Almargem and Mesquita zone merits a good look before you return to the starting point.
