Inspired by the Douro River and its history, the Viver o Douro route takes you to three unique viewpoints, all designed in the image of the iconic rabelo boat. This is the first of them. The rabelo, a traditional wooden boat, was essential for transporting goods, especially Port wine, between the Alto Douro Wine Region and the city of Porto. With a flat bottom and a characteristic keel, it glided through the waters of the river loaded with barrels. If you want to see one up close, there is an example on display at Parque das Tílias, in Castelo de Paiva.

Choupal das Concas Beach, a charming river beach on the Douro River, is the perfect retreat on a hot summer day. With easy access by car, a café, playground and public toilets, it offers everything you need for a relaxing break. Here, you can take a dip in the waters of the Douro while looking out over the mouth of the Arda River, with the shade of the trees adding to the cosiness. It’s an ideal spot for a picnic, a refreshing dip or simply to refill your water bottle before heading on your journey.

If you are doing n222 this is a place worth stopping for a picnic, a swim or just to refill water bottles. Further it has public toilets, a café and a playground.
