If you come from Espiunca, walking this beautiful wooden path up to the bridge costs 2€.

Otherwise, the path is also included in the entrance fee for the bridge and takes up to 2.5 hours depending on your fitness - it's worth it 👍🏽 at the end you can take a taxi back to the starting point. Approx. 15€

Response to Ulli's post
There is plenty of signs asking you to book the Suspension bridge online, even reminding you at both entrances. There is a maximum of 70 people per crossing, and they probably want to avoid disappointment if you just turn up and pay.
Re dogs, I saw some on the path who were well behaved. The bridge would have been horrible for dogs to walk on as it is a metal mesh and would hurt their paws.

During the summer months the wooden plank path is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and in the winter months from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can register on the Paiva Walkways homepage; the entry price is two symbolic euros. Can be done independently of visiting the suspension bridge. You can also register on site via the Internet (if there is still space) - the employees on site will help you with this.

Cash payers are discriminated against and turned away here and on the bridge. Dogs are not allowed on the path or bridge.
