Day 3! Almograve to Vila Nova de Milfontes. 15-18 km depending on who you ask, the map or my smart watch.

The beginning of the hike started out rather gloomy, but no rain!

Although we did have to carefully cross a stream to get to the trailhead.

We happened upon an abandoned house.

The Casa do Vagabundo

There was a lot of agriculture on this hike (it looked just like normal grass?)

And it was very nice to walk on that instead of sand for a change.

Arms and shoulders started to hurt..

And the city of Vila Nova de Milfontes came into sight (although we still had a long ways to go.

We had to climb a rather steep hill to reach this bridge.

Where we discovered a rather interesting mural…

AND cork trees that we being harvested!

We crossed the bridge and headed into town, where we stayed in hostel, cooked an amazing meal, and even got into the water for a bit! This town was very beautiful, and seemed like an amazing place to visit for a holiday. We couldn’t stay long though, because the next day was our last, and hardest hike of the trip!
