I highly recommend Olhos de Água, a river beach 🏖️ with top trails to enjoy pure nature that can be done on foot or by mountain bike, some of which are well signposted with bars next to the beach and there is a campsite for private individuals, it only has bungalows and a hotel, a true paradise 😜🤙🏽🚴🏽💨🚶🏽🏃🏽🏊🏽

Algar da Cerejeira is a remarkable geological karst formation, that is, a natural cavity or vertical sinkhole. These algars are typically formed in limestone regions due to the erosive action of water, which dissolves the rock and creates underground pits or caves. Algar da Cerejeira is therefore an example of this process, offering a fascinating glimpse into the depths of the earth.

The Algar do Ladoeiro is located at an altitude of approximately 500 metres, with the first gallery of this cave having a drop of 20 metres and the deepest gallery approximately 110 metres. The cave is located near the Vale da Canada, north of the town of Telhados Grandes, in the municipality of Porto de Mós.

"The Alcanena MTB Center is made up of 5 circuits duly signposted and planned in order to create 4 different levels of difficulty. There are 200 kms of pure pleasure available to all who visit us, from the youngest or beginners in this modality, even the most experienced and daring. With regard to support structures, we are very well equipped, making available to practitioners an information panel, toilets, changing rooms and an area for repairing and washing bicycles."

The bridge is in need of some works on the side protections, but it is safe to cross it by bike or on foot.
