Crossing N3

If you follow the arrows instead of the map indicated here, the route will take you across a bridge and then underneath using a pedestrian pathway. Arrows are clearly marking the way.

This is a fantastic App and

This is a fantastic App and have used it without an issue till here. However, at the end of town turn right as indicated by the arrows. Head to the station and go over the tracks. There is a dirt and paved road, and a walking track which is clearly marked with blue and yellow arrows pointing along this road on the other side of the railway tracks. No traffic, except a few bikes and it goes all the way to just outside Azambuja ! We did it today and had NO regrets. So much better than having highway trucks and speedy cars roaring past you! It is a no brainer! Take it!!

Follow the arrows in town to take the walking path along the rail. Much preferable to walking along a road!

There is a newer path not following the national road that is much more pleasant- as you leave town head to railway station and cross to the other side of the tracks. Path follows the railway tracks and is well sign posted. Not a lot of shade but a much nicer walk that along the road
