Barbeita Bridge - Mouro River - Monção - Portugal The bridge over the Mouro River is located in Ponte de Mouro, connecting Barbeita to Ceivães over the Mouro River, in Monção. It is known that a bridge existed at this location at least as early as 1386. It was here that, in that year, the historic meeting between King John I and the Duke of Lancaster, pretender to the throne of Castile, took place. The marriage of the Portuguese king to Philippa of Lancaster, the duke's daughter, was also arranged. The old bridge visible today underwent renovations in 1627.

These are the ruins of a Romanesque castle with a walled enclosure around a central tower with a cistern, located on the top of an isolated hill at 1,033 meters (3,389 feet) above the Minho and Lima rivers. It has an oval plan oriented north-south. The main entrance is the Porta do Sol, which opens to the east, while the Gate of Traitors, the Porta do Sapo, is located at the other end. The exit is well-maintained and normal for its location.

The Ponte Velha de Castro Laboreiro is a medieval-style bridge over the Laboreiro River, bordering the Peneda-Geres National Park. The exact date of construction of the Old Bridge is unknown, but it is likely to have been between the 15th and 16th centuries. Also known as the Ponte dos Mouros (Old Bridge), the bridge served as a crossing over the deep waterfalls of the Laboreiro River, across to the mills located on the left bank, as well as an old access road to Castro Laboreiro Castle. The bridge is approximately 5 meters long and rises approximately 5 meters above the river without any side walls.

Built on a granite hill over 1,000 metres above sea level, the castle dominates the Laboreiro River valley, offering spectacular views of the surrounding landscape. Its origins are ancient, probably dating back to Roman or pre-Roman times, but the current structure mainly reflects medieval modifications and extensions, particularly during the Reconquista and the formation of the Kingdom of Portugal. The castle, although now in ruins, still preserves its defensive walls, part of the watchtower and the main gate, elements that testify to its strategic importance in controlling the borders. It is a symbol of the history and resistance of the region, and its isolated and wild location adds to its charm.

Nice walk but certainly not easy and not flat. Lots of scrambling and climbing First part was a lot of climbing but doable. Descent after the castle was sometimes difficult (By the way, it was on a Saturday afternoon and very quiet)
