Description

In this tour, the walk difficulty level is Medium/Difficult! You`ll walk 8km, but downstream! We leave from Porto at 8AM towards Arouca town where we will stop shortly for bathrooms and for coffee. Get ready for adventure! After a short drive, we will arrive at the Walkways and go across one of the Longest Suspension Bridges of the World – The 516 Arouca! It spans 516m-long (1,692ft) across the valley and hangs 175m (576ft) above the Paiva river! Notice: crossing the bridge is not mandatory. You have the option to skip it. Then, you will walk the Paiva Walkways downhill in a total length of 8km over a wooden boardwalk zig-zagging downhill along the left bank of the river. The walk will be followed by another highlight of our day: lunch! A delicious meal is deserved and it will take place at a beautiful typical restaurant! Meat, fish or vegetarian options available. After lunch we’ll discover Arouca for a glance about local culture and history including convent sweets tasting related to Arouca Monastery. Finish your day back in Porto.
