Natural crossing 20km๐ŸŒ๐Ÿšฉ / Travesia natural 20km๐ŸŒ„๐Ÿ(En-Es)

Hello adventurous friends, today I woke up with a great desire to do a trail, I will show you the wild side of the "Mata do Machado" natural reserve, to get here was quite an odyssey and from my house to the reserve it is a 10km walk between the suburbs passing through very rural areas, I love hiking and visiting hidden areas of Portugal and of course it serves as suggestions if you want to visit my small and beautiful country one day! We are going to photograph and learn a little about the place, the plant species that are found.๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒ„๐Ÿงญ๐Ÿ„

Hola amigos aventureros, hoy desperte con muchas ganas de realizar un sendero, te mostrare el lado salvaje de la reserva natural "Mata do Machado", para llegar aqui fue toda una odisea y desde mi casa hasta el la reserva son 10km de caminata entre los suburbios pasando por zonas muy rurales, me encanta hacer senderismo y visitar zonas escondidas de Portugal y por supuesto te sirve como sugerencias si deseas visitar un dia mi pequeรฑo y hermoso pais! vamos a fotografiar y aprender un poco sobre el lugar, las especies de plantas que se encuentran.๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐ŸŒท๐Ÿšตโ€โ™‚๏ธ

A challenge of more than 20km๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/ Un reto de mas de 20km๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

Of all the options you have to get to the natural park, taking the 20km path is the best option because we see different types of landscapes, we will even visit some of the oldest villas of Quinta de Conde, which is a city 30km from Lisbon and is in amidst nature until you reach the bay of Seixal, which is where I live! It is undoubtedly an intense walk but it is worth it for the beautiful landscapes and Mediterranean forests where eucalyptus trees, cedar pines, among others, abound.๐Ÿ„๐ŸŒ„๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ
De todas las opciones que tienes para llegar al parque natural realizar el sendero de 20km es la mejor opcion porque vemos diferentes tipos de paisajes inclusive conoceremos algunas de las quintas mas antiguas de Quinta de Conde que es una ciudad a 30km de Lisboa y que esta en medio de la naturaleza hasta llegar a la bahia de Seixal que es donde vivo! es sin duda una caminata intensa pero vale la pena por los hermosos paisajes y bosques mediterranicos donde abundan arboles de eucalipto, pinos cedros entre otros.๐Ÿงญ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿš™๐ŸŒ„โ›ฒ

Why visit the Machada nature reserve๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/Porque visitar la reserva natural Machada๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

Species found in the reserve๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒ„

When we visit the park we have an educational experience because we find many letters that explain the local fauna and flora, some of the species are unique to Portugal, therefore protecting these spaces is very important to preserve the country's biodiversity, I find it very interesting to come with our children to relax and give them some classes about ecology and how to keep our planet "healthy", I love these spaces! If you don't want to walk and exercise you can bring food and have a picnic.๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ

Cuando visitamos el parque tenemos una experiencia didactica pues encontramos muchos letros que nos explican la fauna y flora local, algunas de las especies son unicas de Portugal por tanto proteger estos espacios es muy importante para preservar la biodiversidad del pais, me parece muy interesante venir con nuestros hijos para relajarnos y darles unas clases sobre ecologia y como mantener nuestro planeta con "salud", me encantan estos espacios! si no quieres caminar y hacer ejercicio puedes traer comida y hacer un picnic.๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ

First two kilometers of walk๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/Primeros dos kilometros de caminata๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

The first two kilometers inside the park are very beautiful because you pass between very wild paths and you are always surrounded by plants of all sizes and colors, it is late autumn so it is a good height to be able to see the changes in the leaves, As you can see, if you are interested in nature like me, you can photograph several species of poisonous wild mushrooms, which grow in the park due to the environmental conditions, it is very humid, there are many birds but you have to have a very good lens to photograph them and come during the week when there is no shouting.๐ŸŒท๐Ÿ„๐Ÿšตโ€โ™‚๏ธ
Los primeros dos kilometros dentro del parque son muy bonitos porque pasas entre caminos muy salvajes y estas siempre rodeado de plantas de todos los tamaรฑos y colores, estoy en finales de otoรฑo por lo que es una buena altura para poder ver los cambios en las hojas, como puedes ver si te interesa la naturaleza como a mi podras fotografiar varias especies de hongos salvajes venenosos, que crecen en el parque por las condiciones del ambiente, es muy humedo, aves hay muchas pero tienes que tener una lente muy buena para fotografiarlos y venir entre semana cuando no hay gritos.๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿš™

Speaking a little about the "da Machada" nature reserve, it is a protected area that is under the administration of the Natural Conservation Institute of Portugal, it has more than 400 hectares of land intended for activities of all kinds including exercises, observation of species, it has an instruction area for boy scouts, an area for excavations and geology studies and other classes!๐Ÿšตโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ„๐ŸŒ„
Hablando un poco de la reserva natural "da machada" es un area protegida que esta bajo la administracion del instituto de conservacion natural de Portugal, cuenta con mas de 400 hectareas de terreno destinado para actividades de todo tipo incluyendo ejercicios, observacion de especies, tiene un area de instruccion para boy scout, un area de excavaciones y estudios de geogologia y otras catedras!๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿงญ

That sign that you see in the photo is the one that tells us where we should turn or continue to complete the trail within the reserve that, despite not being very well signposted, requires us to complete about 4km of walking between very precarious paths and even passing through small ones. streams that I will show you later, some water sources that are more than 70 years old and that were restored.๐Ÿ๐Ÿš™๐Ÿšตโ€โ™‚๏ธ
Ese letrero que ves en la foto es el que nos indica por donde debemos girar o continuar para completar el sendero dentro de la reserva que apesar de no estar muy bien seรฑalizado nos exige completar unos 4km de caminata entre caminos muy precarios e inclusive pasando por pequeรฑos riachuelos que te mostrare mas adelante, alguas fuentes de agua que tienen mas de 70 aรฑos y que fueron restauradas.๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒท๐Ÿš™

Hello nature๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ

This is the trunk of the famous tree from which wine corks are extracted, it is called Quercus suber and it is rare to find some in Portugal with intact trunks as they are widely used commercially, and this way we understand how protected and preserved the reserve that maintains is. All trees intact! In Portugal there is a very interesting museum that talks about corks and that I recommend you visit. It is quite a profession to cut the bark without damaging the tree.๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ

Este es el tronco del famoso arbol de donde se extrae los corchos de los vinos, se llama Quercus suber y es raro conseguir en Portugal algunos con los troncos intactos pues son muy utilizados comercialmente, y asi entendemos cuan protegido y preservado esta la reserva que mantiene todos los arboles intactos! en Portugal hay un museo que habla sobre los corchos muy interesante y que te recomiendo visitar es toda una profesion cortar la corteza sin daรฑar el arbol. ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ

In the deepest part of the forest๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/En lo mas profundo del bosque๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

The path takes us through several narrow paths where we can see around us enormous trees, many of them pine, bushes of all kinds, we can even see on the ground, if you are lucky, some edible berries, in winter it is beautiful but quite complicated due to the rain and the road becomes very muddy, here I took the opportunity to eat, fill up with energy and continue.๐Ÿงญ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒ
El sendero nos incursa a pasar por varios caminos estrechos donde podemos ver a nuestro alrededor enormes arboles muchos de ellos de pino, arbustos de todo tipo podemos ver en el suelo hasta si tienes suerte algunas bayas comestibles, en invierno es bonito pero bastante complicado por la lluvia y el camino se vuelve muy lodoso, aqui aproveche para comer llenarme de energia y continuar.๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒพ

Road to the lagoon๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/Camino a la laguna๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

Nice landscapes๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿšฉ/Bonito paisajes๐Ÿงญ๐ŸŒ„

And here concludes my great and beautiful tour through the beautiful Mediterranean forest of "reserva da mata" which without a doubt I would return in the future but with my family, it is one of those hidden places that no one visits but that is worth it because we learn a lot about it. environment as well as the country itself.๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒ

Y aqui concluye mi gran y hermoso recorrido entre el bonito bosque mediterranico de "reserva da mata" la cual sin duda volveria en el futuro pero con mi familia, es de aquellos lugares escondidos que nadie visita pero que vale la pena porque aprendemos mucho tanto del medio ambiente como del propio pais.๐Ÿ๐Ÿงญ๐Ÿš™
