Fóiosのおすすめツーリングルート

Sabugal, a town that deserves a visit to its castle and the entire surrounding area, especially the magnificent river beach on the Côa River.

Soito, also called Souto, is now a village, a title it acquired in 1999. The name comes from the chestnut trees that once graced the local landscape. As early as 1527, according to the Royal Register, this was the most important center of the municipality, with 160 residents.

In the heart of the municipality of Sabugal, stands the small village of Torre. Today, few people live here, mostly people who keep the tradition of agriculture and livestock alive. In August, however, the village takes on a new life: the grand festivities in honor of Our Lady of Fátima fill the streets with color, faith, and celebration.

Among the secret corners of Portugal, the Côa River is a discreet treasure. It rises in Fóios and flows through valleys and hills until it joins the Douro River in Vila Nova de Foz Côa. Even here, where it flows gently and seems like just a trickle, the valley reveals all its magic. It's the ideal place to rest for a moment, cool your feet, and let yourself be enveloped by the river's serenity before resuming your journey.

Built on the Côa River, its main function is the production of hydroelectric energy and, to a lesser extent, the water supply and regulation of the river flow. Completed in 2000, its creation gave rise to a reservoir that is partially located within the Serra da Malcata Nature Reserve, a protected area of great ecological importance

Here you cross a small asphalt bridge that connects the two banks of the river surrounded by vegetation and enter the Serra da Malcata nature reserve.
