Griloのおすすめツーリングルート

Fantastic trail, with excellent views

A bridge with a horizontal deck over three unequal round arches, the central one being the largest. The pillars have triangular buttresses upstream and downstream. The parapet protecting the bridge deck rests on a carved tubular cornice. Crowning the buttresses, four semicircular balconies with stone benches open onto the deck. At each end, the bridge boasts two pairs of faceted Baroque spires resting on small spheres.

Small narrow streets to discover in the not so small village

This church is actually a monastery, a Dominican monastery. It is dedicated to Blessed Gonçalo, who is also the patron saint of this town. The monastery was built in the 16th century, and parts of it now serve as the town hall and a museum. It's very sustainable.

The Portuguese poet Teixeira de Pascoaes was born here in Amarante on November 2nd, 1877. His works include dramas, poetry, biographies and novels. He always focused on Portuguese history. This bust commemorates the poet.

Very nice cafe on the Ponte de São Gonçalo. Here you can find all the local specialties such as Brisas do Tomega, Papos de Anjo, Foguetes or Bolo de S. Gonçalo. In the cafe you can walk to the river side and enjoy the uninterrupted view of the Rio Tamega and the bridge. When the weather is nice there are also outdoor seats.
