Santiago do Cacém - Roncão

This is, therefore, a stage that starts as a “recourse” for walking travelers but ends up being frankly more interesting in terms of landscape, experiences, and comfort it provides. Further on, we travel a short stretch of 400 meters on the busy N120 national road, from which we turn right on the only dirt road, with the mountain ranges of Grândola and Cercal on the horizon. It is an area of dense cork and holm oak forest, very fresh and of great natural beauty. Crossing it on the existing pedestrian walkway, we quickly reach the village of S. Bartolomeu da Serra through Avenida 25 de Abril. In the middle of abandoned hills and narrow leafy valleys, we continue along the marked trail, totally immersed in nature, until we reach the village of Roncão, where we meet the N120 national road.
