Pay attention to the opening hours and online payment if you want to use the footbridge.

This small suspended walkway appears discreetly along the wooden path that leads to the imposing 516 Arouca bridge. Here, you cross the Paiva River in a more intimate and serene way, feeling the water flowing below while the sounds of nature surround you. A kind of charming appetizer before the great spectacle of the main crossing.

If you cross the bridge at Alvarenga and then take the wooden walkway along the Rio Paiva to Espiunca, you should remember that you will need a taxi from there back to the starting point. A later return via the Arouca bridge is not possible. However, if you just want to walk across the bridge and back, this is no problem with your ticket booking (online). The Alvarenga side is recommended for people who want to avoid the many wooden steps and just want the pure bridge experience.

After the forest fires on September 24, only the bridge is still open. Hopefully the repairs will go quickly.

The wooden staircase construction must first be conquered, there are around 500 steps to the top. But in return you get a great view of the narrow valley, which has been carved by the Paiva River over millions of years. Because the stone is very hard, the gorge is V-shaped.

Beautiful nature and great experience
