More than two years after I published the track Winter Monsanto I am back with another tour in this great forest park just next to Lisbon. Since that time I have been exploring tracks in that area and still there are many to discover and ways to get lost. As before I start the tour at the cycleway that connects Lisbon centre to Monsanto and then I combined large loops with smaller ones to connect most of the iconic single-tracks of the park. The complete track ends where it started.Some of these single-tracks were done in the opposite direction and a couple of them are quite steep. For those in Lisbon that want a mtb morning close to city, Monsanto is a place to go.
There are many other activities in the park: rock climbing, horse riding, hiking, picnic areas and there is also a camping site. http://www.lisboacamping.com/
