The good news about windmills is that one could almost always find the road. It might be private, closed or bumpy, but it will be a road. This time it was a good gravel road and soon we reached the top of Povoinha, which is surrounded by windmills and has a raised trig pillar. We stopped briefly to take some elevation readings and drove little over a kilometre to the east to a slightly lower peak, Mata de Álvaro, with an interesting lookout tower with a trig on the roof. It was already afternoon, but this wasn’t our last peak for the day; we planned to visit the peaks of Zibreiro and Cabeço Raínha before heading back to the airport.
Windmill, windmill, windmill, must be pretty windy most of the time
