Forestry / Wood / Timber
Spanish term or phrase: adehesado
Context:

Pocos metros más adelante, y antes de llegar a un gran aljibe, se cruza a la izquierda 11 para proseguir por una tenue vereda que remonta 100 m una campa entre encinas y entronca con un camino 12 por el que continúa a la izquierda.

Enseguida nos situamos sobre el manantial en medio de un encinar adehesado, con más mesas y parrillas, que hay que surcar tomando el camino herboso que se abre en su parte alta y dejando otro a la izquierda.
