This route leads from Camperstop Messines partly over quiet asphalt roads, and partly over a large stretch of section 8 of the GR13 (Via Algarviana) to the lovely town of Alte, where the Fontes and the lesser-known waterfall can be visited. The same road can be followed again, or route 2 can be taken back as an alternative. Because the route largely follows the GR13, the signposts for this route can be followed.
