#5 Hiking on the old Mountain Road..

 

Hiking the old mountain road - this is the old main road to the port city of Porto Novo.

I don't think I could ride up this one even if it were asphalt – the grade is not super steep, and only a few kms, but it is just so looong...

But, next time I plan to take a ride up, and do more hiking at the top near Corda.


No water taps on the road, but there is a small restaurant near Corda.  

The road levels off near the top, but continues to go up-and-down a bit all the way to Corda.  After that, there is a very long descent into Porto Novo, in the south-east of the Island, where the ferry terminus is.
