The Route with the name of the place of the Recovera, takes to us to lands near the Tagus river. From there, we can contemplate the typical landscape of the Alcantara region: curled fields without vegetation, and lots of slate in their walls, full of this type of stone. Also there is a varied quota of shepherds´ houses, here known as -bujíos-.
From the Royal Cañada of Gata in the Industrial estate we will go to the Merinas´ pathway of Alcántara and from there, we will go to the Colada of la Recovera. From the Bujío Blanco, in the estate of -The Fraila-, we will cross the EX-117 to go through the colada up to the sanctuary of Our Lady of the Hitos, mistress of Alcántara. Once in the estate of the Recovera the landscape will become a mountain full of oaks, and it will be like that all the way back to the village. In this part of the route we will enjoy excellent views on the shore of the reservoir and of the dam. The route has some terms with signs and it takes all the time public ways or drovers´ roads. The Alcántara´s Reservoir has recently been declared Special Protection Area for Birds.
