The Ponte das Tábuas de Balugães (Bridge of the Tábuas of Balugães) is a discreet jewel on the Portuguese Way to Santiago. It spans the serene Neiva River with an elegant trestle arch and boasts a wealth of history: it was mentioned in documents dating back to 1135, likely still made of wood, as the name suggests. The current stone structure is believed to have emerged around the 16th century.Nearby, a small river beach welcomes locals and travelers from around the world, all with the same goal: to dive in, cool off, and let themselves be carried away by the calm rhythm of the Neiva River's waters.
