A real marathon for climbers, starting in the old fishing village. Despite the ease of the Ferreiras, Paderne and Portela de Messines section, a surprise awaits you in Alte with climbs and gradients up of up 20%. After Malhão, the mythical climb on the Volta ao Algarve cycle race, you enter a section of continuous ups and downs as far as Pico da Mú, before taking on the 35 km to São Marcos da Serra. Make progress towards Nave Redonda, in the foothills of the Serra de Monchique and the border with Alentejo, before conquering the short summits and gradients on the way to Silves and returning to Albufeira on a flat road.
