    Hiking

    One of several fortress ruins up to Caminha. Tip: take a picnic with you, sit on the wall and enjoy the sunset!
    Translated by
    Well preserved outer walls of a small coastal fortress north of Viana do Castelo that was part of the old Portuguese defense system against a possible Spanish invasion. Good views from the top.
