On turn to final from the north on visual approach to Runway XX received a EGPWS alert. The alert was not a full alert. aural warning only. no terrain display or RA indications. Declared my aircraft; disconnected the autopilot and excused a climb to clear any possible terrain. Prior to accepting the visual approach to Runway XX the FO (First Officer) and I discussed and identified any and all possible terrain; obstacles and MSA. When we received the partial alert and after climbing and turning for the airport company 10-7 procedure; we were able to determine visually and from the approach chart that we were safely clear of terrain and were able to continue with a normal approach and landing.Cause  -  Terrain [area].Suggestions - Crews [should] not accept a visual approach unless outside [intersection] (4;000 feet).
