Good morning my dear community, today I want to share with you my experience in the ARRABIDA Natural Park 馃槂馃毜鈥嶁檪锔忦煆烇笍, with unique landscapes, rich in geological, ecological and cultural heritage, especially a convent from the year 1542, which with its four chapels and its three crosses at the top of the mountain make it an attraction for mountaineering lovers, it was exactly a goal in mind that I had wanted to do for a long time and it finally became a reality and I invite you to the tour with beautiful landscapes.
At the top of the mountain, we can see the four chapels, which were the set of guard houses to venerate the mysteries of the Passion, and some cells excavated in the rocks form what is known as the Old Convent.

En lo alto de la monta帽a, podemos visualizar las cuatro capillas, que eran el conjunto de casetas de vigilancia para venerar los misterios de la Pasi贸n, y unas celdas excavadas en las rocas forman lo que se conoce como el Antiguo Convento.

In those years, great pilgrimages were carried out, to climb the mountain to reach the crosses there is still a path that over time has been filled with weeds, the climb is a little dangerous but with caution the climb is done passing through the chapels and Arriving at the top where the crosses are and being able to enjoy a spectacular landscape, originally the crosses were made of bronze but due to vandalism they were replaced with stones.

En esos a帽os se realizaban grandes peregrinaciones, para subir a la monta帽a para llegar a las cruces todavia hay un sendero que con el tiempo se ha llenado de malesa, es un poco peligrosa la escalada pero con precaucion se realiza la escalada pasando por las capillas y llegando a la cima donde estan las cruces y poder disfrutar de un paisaje expectacular, originalmente las cruces eran de bronce pero por el vandalismo fueron reemplazadas con piedras.

On the road we get the sign where we see the route of the mountain and another at the entrances to the chapel where it is reported that these areas are protected and a special permit is required for scientific or work purposes in the area to be able to climb the mountains. crossings, unfortunately I did not have any of that permit and we took the risks of climbing knowing that we would be exposed to a fine, but the adventure must continue.

It is important to be well protected with flannels and long pants to avoid friction with thorny trees, as well as glasses to avoid any contact with insects and the reflection of the sun because at some points of the route you are bordering the mountain and you can slip, as seen in the photos they are trails very dense and you must be well oriented to not get lost in the mountain, you must have the orientation of the sun and in points where there is no vegetation, locate where the crosses are.
