Fantastic trail, with excellent views

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.

Free parking is available on the outskirts of town. You have to drive through a one-way street and traffic lights to get to the parking lot. You can then start your hike right by the river or walk into town.

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.

The Ponte de São Gonçalo bridge, made of granite, is a symbol of the strength of the city's defense against the French. Proof of this is the commemorative plaque in the southern part of the bridge, which commemorates this act.

The best way to do this is to walk from the parking lot behind the church down to the bank and admire the bridge from there 🤩

Beautiful church, inside and out 🤩
