This is one of the two routes of very difficult skill level, and it runs through the area north of Erra, taking place mostly on wide dirt paths and with some unevenness. This route allows you to explore the agricultural areas along the Sorraia River until the town of Santa Justa, as well as the entire area north of Rio, where the landscape that characterizes the region is filled with cork oak forests, grazing areas and some exploration sites of eucalyptus.
