モンディム・デ・バストのおすすめライド

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.

Nice bike path, nice asphalt. Fairly wide, but only in a few spots is the vegetation recovering. Recommended 👍

Nice climb, steady and great for pushing. Nice view at the top, and there's a fountain halfway up/down.

The waterfall cascades down a steep rock face, formed by large boulders and outcrops of dark and gray stone. The water, a brilliant white color, splits into multiple streams as it descends, creating a multi-layered effect. Around the waterfall and along the rocky slopes, vegetation is sparse but tenacious.

From this hairpin bend you have a spectacular view. The spontaneous vegetation extends into a carpet of dry grass and low shrubs, typical of the hilly environment. A few scattered trees, with foliage of a more intense green, dot the landscape, adding depth and contrast.

Mondim de Basto, on the banks of the Tâmega, holds memories of many peoples. Although it was only founded in the 12th century, during the reign of D. Sancho I, its roots are much older.

The path is well signposted throughout.
