    The source of the Vez River is located in the Serra de Soajo, at an altitude of approximately 1,300 meters, in a place known as Seida or Lamas do Vez, in the parish of Soajo, in the municipality of Arcos de Valdevez. The Vez River is one of the main tributaries of the Lima River and flows through the Peneda-Gerês National Park.

    I couldn't find any water; I was closer to seeing a wild boar :)
