Move from the city center to Monsanto Forest Park, full of lush scenery and green space. Once entering the forest, chose from asphalt or single tracks and enjoy the variety of tree species along the trails, many of which were introduced to Portugal during a re-foresting effort.

 

Fro the forest, run up to Eduardo VII Park, see the famous ‘big flag,’ and run along the ‘Corredor Verde’ (Green Corridor). Along the way, head up a few hills and enjoy incredible views of the surrounding city.
