ビラマリンのおすすめライド

Location: in the municipality of Pereiro de Aguiar (Ourense), on the Loña River, a tributary of the Miño. Uses: water supply, irrigation, hydroelectric power generation, fishing; it is not navigable or suitable for swimming. Circular walk: approximately 4 km (3.7 km to be exact), easy difficulty, ideal for families and dogs—although they must be kept on a leash—offering shade, rest areas, and beautiful views.

It spans the Miño River, linking the historic center of Ourense with the A Ponte neighborhood. It was built in the 1st century AD as a branch of the Via Nova (Via XVIII), connecting Bracara Augusta (Braga) with Asturica Augusta (Astorga). Only traces of the original Roman phase remain, such as rusticated stonework at the ends near the banks. It suffered damage during the Middle Ages; in 1228, under Bishop Lorenzo and with the support of Ferdinand III, it was rebuilt with pointed arches and renovated approaches. Until the 17th century, the bridge repeatedly collapsed. The final work was directed by Melchor de Velasco Agüero around 1660, establishing its current appearance.
