Gravel Cycling and Camping in Serra da Estrela - Portugal

I met Rui who invited me to explore the mountains and sleep in Mondego headwaters.
The plan was to cross Serra da Estrela and Serra do Açor and end in Pombal.
Unfortunately I couldn't record the 3 day trip so this is just the first day. Neverthless it was an amazing trip that I highly recommend.

Route :
