Thanks for sharing.🙏

A beautiful hike through the valley (depending on your starting point, the ascent or descent will be more pronounced). Start as early as possible, while the sun is still behind the mountain range. Online tickets only (no payment on site). Take a screenshot of your ticket (QR code). This will be scanned when exiting or re-entering (if you want to go back). Bring plenty of water. The sun will come out around 10:00 a.m. (I hiked it in October). Parking is available right next to the upper starting point. The lower trailhead is about 500 meters away (coming from Chãos, turn left before the dam).

The trail here merges with the Great Côa and Historic Villages Route, leading you down a steep descent to the river. After crossing, the hillside challenges you with its demanding climb, but the reward lies in each new look: ever-changing perspectives of the Côa Valley. Both directions offer incredible views: remember to look back!

I did it and I recommend it. A very pleasant route, with spectacular views. A suspension bridge creates some adrenaline for those less experienced in these walks.😂

Caminho dos Poios with views of the Vale Glaciar do Zêzere The Caminho dos Poios, or the "Poios" (agricultural terraces) Trail, offers spectacular views of the vast and imposing Vale Glaciar do Zêzere, a masterpiece of nature sculpted by ancient glaciers. This trail winds along the sides of the mountain, offering panoramic views that embrace the entire "U" valley, highlighting its grandeur and the singularity of the landscape. The route allows you to appreciate not only the glacial morphology with its steep walls and moraine deposits, but also the human ingenuity in adapting the territory, as evidenced by the terraces that characterize the landscape in some areas. It is an immersion in the wild beauty of the Serra da Estrela, with the opportunity to contemplate one of its most significant geological treasures.

Fantastic perspectives, great nature experience

Somewhat hidden waterfall cascade of the Poco do Inferno waterfall. Much nicer in my opinion than the larger cascades below. A bit hidden and difficult to access...... so it can be that with a bit of luck you are all alone here. Good footwear and sure-footedness are required for the ascent.

Beautiful Skywalk, still closed but great to commit
