Hiking
The Loriga Stream Route connects Loriga to Vide, winding through a deep valley where water dictates the rhythm. Along the way, centuries-old levadas (water channels) run alongside the trails, among woods, terraces, and ancient paths.
In the wildest corners, holm oaks, holly, and Portuguese laurel trees hold the secrets of the mountains. And when the stream rages, it leaves its mark with the so-called giant's marmitas (waterfalls carved by erosion).
