Descrição
Starting from the parking lot indicated in the map a forest road leads to the bottom of the quarry. Along the road you can spot different forest birds including Chapim-de-poupa. On the right-hand side a little trail leads to a plateau and to walkable boulders in the east of the quarry. Both provide a good view over the whole area. In the forests Cruza-bico-comum has been seen every now and then.
The forest road ends by a little field in front of the cliffs. To the right there runs a trail ending in a little pit. Here you can spot Chapim-rabilongo amongst other different forest species. Towards the cliffs you can find a steep field giving you a good location for observing species by the rocks like Bufo-real and Corvo. In winter you can also observe Trepadeira-dos-muros. Keep an eye on the trees at the cliff edges as well, because Águia-d'asa-redonda or falcão-peregrino has been seen here also.
