Fantastic area for cycling or walking

Old bridges are magical!

The terraces of the Vez Valley, between Padrão and Porta Cova, are a masterpiece of the relationship between man and nature. Created by our ancestors to cultivate the land and ensure their livelihood, they change with each season, painting the landscape with ever-new colors. It is no wonder that this unique landscape was elected one of the “7 Wonders of Portugal” in the Rural Village category.

The Brandas are temporary summer villages, living testimonies of ancient transhumance. For centuries, shepherds and farmers would climb the mountains in search of fertile pastures, leaving the "Inverneiras" where they spent the winter. An ancient cycle, marked by communion with nature and adaptation to the seasons, which shaped the heritage and identity of this region.

The Medieval Bridge of Vilela crosses the Vez River and is said to have already existed in 1258 (23rd century). It has 2 arches, one of them broken, of unequal size.

Old abandoned shepherd's hut

This dreamlike path leads mostly on boardwalks along the river bank. It is mostly shaded and is therefore extremely pleasant to walk on even on hot days. Here and there you come to the river again and again and can put your feet in the refreshing water or even bathe.

A very nice trail for hiking, it is easy to walk and not really difficult. The nature here is beautiful and definitely worth a hike.
