PR 15

Vereda da Ribeira da Janela

OpenLast checked October 26, 2026

The 2.7 km descent from Curral Falso on the ER 209 to the village of Ribeira da Janela, allowed an hour and a half. The route loses 420 m, from 820 m down to 400 m, which is what earns it a medium grade over such a short distance. It is the usual continuation of PR 14.
