Description by the author

Part off road, part tarmac route gives a nice impression of this part of the Algarve around Camperstop Messines. You will see the rough countryside as well as spectacular views towards the Monchique mountain range and the ocean. Alte is a nice place for a stop, to see the "fontes" and one of the few (small) waterfalls of the Algarve.
