A very interesting location with all the traditional granaries ("esquigueiros") clustered together on a large rock. The view from here is also very beautiful.

The Espigueiros of Soajo are one of the most iconic symbols of northern Portugal and the Peneda-Gerês National Park. They are traditional granaries built of stone and wood, designed to store corn and other grains. They are raised on pillars with "mouse stones" (circular slabs) to prevent rodents from entering. They are covered with gabled roofs and topped with crosses, reflecting the religious influence on rural life.

El PR-7 AVV – Caminhos do Pão e da Fé es un recorrido circular sesignizado que parte partir desde Soajo y se adentra en el Parque Nacional Peneda-Gerês (Portugal), combina paisajes agrícolas, patrimonio religioso e historia rural.

The terraces of the Vez Valley, between Padrão and Porta Cova, are a masterpiece of the relationship between man and nature. Created by our ancestors to cultivate the land and ensure their livelihood, they change with each season, painting the landscape with ever-new colors. It is no wonder that this unique landscape was elected one of the “7 Wonders of Portugal” in the Rural Village category.

Take the opportunity to have lunch in the region and before or after take the Ermelo Ecovia

Did this route in summer 2014 and found it easy. Almost all is flat, except very small sections.

“Espigueiros”, granite granaries in which the village community stored their supplies. The smaller ones were for a family, the larger ones for communities.

The tour is classified by Komoot as “easy” and for beginners without special fitness or skills. That is certainly not appropriate. The route is very hilly with some short but steep climbs and descents at around 15 - 20%, partly on soft sand and gravel, which is difficult or impossible to manage with touring bike tires (push!), especially after rain. But it is a very beautiful route that is worth the effort!
