비에이라 도민호 최고의 라이딩 경로

Attention, this is an extremely dangerous place. You can never be too careful.

Impressive waterfalls with several pools, accessible with a bit of climbing. Some climbing aids have been anchored into the rock. However, since the waterfall is located near a road, you're rarely alone here. And there have been fatalities here, as the climb down to the lagoons is not without its dangers.

Dam with a fantastic view, and also provides quick access to both banks...

The Caniçada Dam (Portuguese: Barragem da Caniçada) is located in the Northern region of Portugal in the Braga district near the municipality of Caniçada. It dams up the Cávado River and its tributary Rio Gerês to form a four-armed reservoir (port. Albufeira (da Barragem) da Caniçada). In the middle of the reservoir, near the point where the Rio Gerês originally flowed into the Rio Cávado, the lake is bridged by two bridges. To the north of the reservoir is the Peneda-Gerês National Park and part of the lake area belongs to the national park. The city of Braga is located about 15 km southwest of the Caniçada dam. Upstream, the next hydroelectric power station on the Cávado is the Salamonde dam.

An impressive build! Built in 1955, it has a height of 76m and a crown length of 246m. The hydroelectric power station located there produces an average of 346 GWh per year.

Great spot to relax and enjoy the view, right on the water.

Test your brakes before down!
