We have incredible things throughout this country.

At Portas de Montemuro, the landscape stretches out without limits. Here, tables and benches invite you to take a break and enjoy the view, while the national road 321, popular with cyclists, marks the 1,215 metres of altitude. The highest peak of the Montemuro mountain range, at 1,381 metres, is nearby, to the east. Nearby, the ruins of the Wall of Portas de Montemuro preserve echoes of a distant past. Mentioned in the Inquiries of 1258, they reveal traces of an ancient fortified settlement from the Iron Age, possibly linked to the Castro culture. Later, the site was reused by the Romans and, at the time of the Reconquista, by D. Afonso Henriques, the first king of Portugal.

very beautiful landscape with a good park3 to have a snack..worth visiting

Drave is a small and very pretty village. Access is quite difficult, even on foot, as the path is very uneven and covered with large stones. The exit is equally difficult, or perhaps even worse. Physical fitness is required!

This is one of the many bridges that span the Bestança River, each inviting you to pause and take in the verdant serenity and the hypnotic murmur of the crystal-clear waters. Some, like the Soutela Bridge, date back to the Middle Ages, while others, more recent, blend harmoniously into the landscape. Whether ancient or modern, they all share one thing in common: breathtaking views.

This path descends through the valley of the River Bestança along one of the old roads that lead to the Prado area. The Bestança rises at Portas de Montemuro and flows into the Douro: 13.5 kilometres of crystal-clear water, it is one of the purest rivers in Europe. Its ecological balance sustains otters, trout and genets, while since ancient times, mills scattered throughout the valley have used its waters to grind cereals, especially corn, preserving a valuable rural heritage.

Hidden between the Freita and São Macário mountains, Drave is an uninhabited village that looks like something out of a mythical tale. The only way to get there is on foot, usually from Regoufe, and the first view of the village along the trail is breathtaking. Amidst the dark schist houses, the small chapel of Nossa Senhora da Saúde stands out for its whiteness. Surrounded by imposing mountains, the stone walls were built to tame the sloping land and sustain the life that once existed here. In the valley, the Palhais river runs through the village, offering an irresistible invitation to take a refreshing dip on hot days.
