The GR-36 trail in the Miranda do Douro area is one of the most spectacular routes in northern Portugal, especially for its views of the Douro Canyon, which forms the natural border with Spain.

From the Vale de Águia hill fort, there is a natural viewpoint with spectacular views of one of the meanders of the Douro.
At the São João das Arribas hermitage, you can also enjoy stunning panoramic views of the canyon and waterfalls on the Spanish slope.
The landscape includes cliffs, meadows, oak groves, and pastures, with abundant flora and fauna.
