Stage Description

This is the queen stage of mountain in the Portuguese Way in Portugal. The journey is marked by a tough ascent to Alto da Labruja, the highest point on the route in Lusitanian lands. It's an demanding climb along a mountain trail that crosses a beautiful forest. Once crowned the high point, an equally technical descent takes the pilgrim to the valley. This is a short but intense stage, of great scenic beauty and a challenge for the legs. The destination, the small village of Rubiães, offers well-deserved rest in a rural and peaceful environment.
