Route of high skill level, for Bicycle Touring, that runs through the area to the West and North of "Castelo de Vide", by national and municipal roads. The predominant landscape after leaving the urban environment features cork oak and holm oak, as well as some areas of cattle grazing and quartzitic elevations. The main crossing points of this route are "Castelo de Vide", "Póvoa" and "Meadas" Dams, and the villages of "Póvoa and Meadas" and "Meada".
