This historic path departs Serradilla to the west. It is flat and accessible. The paved route enters a beautiful, mature cork oak grove leading to the Santa Catalina chapel, whose pilgrimage is held on Easter Monday.
The route is well signposted, there are rest and picnic areas and, depending on the time of year, traditional activities such as cork removal can be observed.
On this route one comes across a multitude of birds inhabiting this area, including orioles, warblers, hoopoes, wrens, kites, booted eagles and many more. These birds are easily observed in spring, when the silence of the cork oak grove gives way to their noisy, melodic courtships and teem with life.
