Buenas tardes amigos, hoy paso por esta comunidad nuevamente para traerles una aventura; realice una caminata de 9km para recorrer dos importantes aldeas al norte de Lisboa, comenzaremos por la villa de: "Rebanque" la cual es bastante conocida por su naturaleza y paisajes, posteriormente iremos a Cheleiros para conocer un verdadero puente Romano en perfecto estado del siglo II despues de Cristo, es una ruta historica popular perfecta para los amantes del senderismo, hoy te la traigo con muchos detalles disfrutala.🏫🌍
Start of the Trail🚩🌳/Caracteristicas del sendero🌍🧭
In total the walk is approximately 8-10km, I recommend a day that is not rainy because there are stretches where you will walk on sandy paths, bring hiking boots and a walking stick, this trail is not signposted and on the contrary is personalized by me following the route that I show you on Gmaps, starting point: (38.876755, -9.323111) street "rua pinhal de erminda". It is not a very demanding route but I do not recommend it if you have small children.🚩🧭
En total la caminata son de 8-10km aproximadamente, te recomiendo un dia que no este lluvioso porque hay trayectos donde caminaras entre caminos de arenas, lleva botas de excursion y baston, este sendero no esta senalizado y por el contrario es personalizado por mi siguiendo esa ruta que te muestro en Gmaps, punto de partida: (38.876755, -9.323111) calle "rua pinhal de erminda". No es una ruta muy exigente pero no la recomiendo si tienes ninos pequenos.🌳🌻
Rebanque village🚩🌳/Aldea de Rebanque🌍🧭
"Rebanque" is a fairly small village of just under 500 people that despite being in the middle of nowhere and being isolated, there are records that it was inhabited in the 11th century, in other words, it is too old, possibly in the era of the conquests of Portugal, it is an area with large valleys that are surrounded by several small hills, this area belongs to the municipality of Mafra and therefore we see the Mafra nature reserve which has an area of more than 20km and a height of 500 meters, famous for housing the "da Pena" Palace, in reality there is a walk from here to the palace but it is quite demanding.🧭🚩
"Rebanque" es una aldea bastante pequena de poco menos de 500 personas que apesar de estar en medio de la nada y ser aislada se tienen registros que fue habitada en el siglo XI osea es demasiada antigua posiblemente en la era de las conquistas de Portugal, es una zona con grandes valles que estan rodeado por varias pequenas colinas, esta zona pertenece al municipio de Mafra y por ello vemos la reserva natural de mafra que tiene una extension de mas de 20km y una altura de 500 metros, famosa por albergar el Palacio "da pena", en realidad hay una caminata desde aqui hasta el palacio pero es bastante exigente.🕌⛰️
We are on our way entering the village and here we are going to make a small detour to visit a waterfall and other interesting things in "Rebanque". So far it has been an interesting walk with beautiful views of the valley, nothing demanding but it is dangerous. We have to drive next to a road and the vehicles go at very high speed, we have to be very cautious. I was looking at another alternative but there isn't one!🚩🧭
Vamos camino entrando a la aldea y aqui vamos hacer un pequeno desvio para visitar una cascada y otras cosas interesantes en "Rebanque", hasta el momento a sido una caminata interesante con hermosas vistas del valle, nada exigente pero si peligroso tenemos que circular al lado de una carretera y los vehiculos van a muy alta velocidad, tenemos que ser bastante precavido, estaba viendo otra alternativa pero no hay!🌻🌍
Detour to the Rebanque waterfall🚩🌳/Devio a la cascada Rebanque🌍🧭
path to the waterfall🌻🚩
Without a doubt, making this detour is worth the effort because we are going to visit a small waterfall that forms in the rainy months thanks to a small stream produced by the humidity of the mountains. It has no name, so I am leaving you the coordinates: "38.883184, -9.320045". Here you can simply enjoy the scenery and meditate. The path is following the stream. I am telling you this because there is an entrance, but it is not private land over there; the path is over a bridge.🧭📸
sin duda hacer este desvio merece el esfuerzo porque vamos a visitar una pequena cascada que se forma en los meses de lluvia gracias a un pequeno riachuelo que se produce por la humedad de la sierra, no tiene nombre por eso les dejo las coordenadas: "38.883184, -9.320045", aqui puedes simplemente disfrutar del paisaje y meditar, el camino es siguiendo el riachuelo, te lo digo porque hay una entrada pero es un terreno privado por alli no es, el camino esta por un puente.📸
I want to leave an important note about the waterfall, all the waterfalls in Portugal in the summer 80% of them dry up and the water does not flow with so much force, so if you visited the country in the summer time do not bother to make this detour because you will find this dry.🌻🌍
Quiero dejar una anotacion importante sobre la cascada, todas las cascadas de Portugal en el verano el 80% de ellas se secan y el agua no fluye con tanta fuerza, por eso si visitaste el pais en la epoca de verano no te molestes en hacer este desvio porque conseguiras esto seco.🧭🚩
Cheleiros village🚩🌳/Aldea de Cheleiros🌍🧭
I am now very close to Cheleiros and we begin to see the structures of the quite old houses, I see stone fences that were typical of the medieval era and some of these houses have maintained these fences since that time because they were considered areas of historical interest, Cheleiros received the "document" of village in the medieval era in the XI century, since then it has been dedicated to different activities with the cultivation of wine being the predominant one.🌍🧭
Ya estoy muy cerca de Cheleiros y comenzamos a ver las estructuras de las casas bastante antiguas, veo cercos de piedras que eran tipicas de la era medieval y algunas de estas casas mantienen estas cercas desde esa epoca porque fueron consideradas zonas de interes historico, Cheleiros recibio el "documento" de aldea en la era medieval en el XI, desde alli se ha dedicado a diferentes actividades siendo el cultivo de vino el predominante.⛰️👩🏻🦯🏰
Here in the last photo we see archaeological evidence of a discovery that was made in a school in the village, it is a pillar that dates back to the 13th century, also typical of the medieval era. In Cheleiros we find restaurants, inns, wineries; it is a village that deserves a day's visit.⛰️🧭
Aqui en la ultima foto vemos evidencia arqueologica de un descubrimiento que se hizo en una escuela de la aldea, se trata de un pilar que data del siglo XIII tambien tipico de la era medieval, en Cheleiros conseguimos restaurantes, posadas, vineros; es una aldea que merece un dia de visita.🚩🕌
Roman Evidence🚩🌳/Evidencia Romana🌍🧭
Previously we described how Cheleiros was a medieval town but at the end of the walk we found a Roman bridge and this made us travel further back in time because in the 2nd century AD the Romans had settled throughout this area, it is quite interesting to see the contrast of a very small town but with so much history.🤔🏰
Anteriormente describiamos como Cheleiros era una ciudad medieval pero al finalizar la caminata conseguimos un puente Romano y esto nos hace viajar mas atras en el tiempo porque en el siglo II despues de Cristo los Romanos se habian establecido por toda esta area, es bastante interesante ver el contraste de una villa muy pequena pero con demasiada historia.🌳👩🏻🦯
It is incredible how a bridge that is a thousand years old is still so perfectly preserved. This gives us an idea of how advanced the Romans were in their time. This is a typical Roman road, with buried stones. In my opinion, the reason it is so well preserved is because no vehicles pass through it. Being pedestrian, it does not suffer as much wear and tear. This is the Lizandro River. People could probably use the bridge to go north or south of the country.🏰
Increible como un puente con mil anos aun se conserva tan perfectamente, esto nos da una ilusion de cuan avanzados eran los Romanos en su epoca, esta si es una tipica calzada Romana, con piedras enterradas, en mi opinion del porque esta tan bien conservado es porque no pasan vehiculos por el, al ser peatonal no tiene tanto desgaste, esto aqui es el rio lizandro, probablemente por el puente podian o ir al norte o al sur del pais.🚩🧭
This is where my walk ends. I really felt quite blessed to be able to enjoy a beautiful landscape and learn more about the beautiful country that is Portugal! I hope to motivate you to come and experience some of my adventures on your next vacation.🏰🚩
Aqui culmina mi caminata, de verdad me senti bastante bendecido poder disfrutar de un hermoso paisaje y aprender mas sobre el hermoso pais que es Portugal! espero motivarte para en tus proximas vacaciones vengas y realices algunas de mis aventuras⛰️🌍.
