A worthwhile museum, which scores points despite/or because of its very minimalist presentation of the subject matter. At the end, enjoy a port wine on the terrace of the museum's café.

The Corgo Eco-Trail is the result of the restoration of part of the old Corgo railway line, which connects Régua to Chaves. The Eco-Trail currently begins in Abambres, in the municipality of Vila Real, and continues north towards Chaves, connecting to Verín (Spain) via the Corgo International Eco-Trail. This is a panoramic route where the Corgo River is your travelling companion, as well as the Marão and Alvão mountains and the Vale de Aguiar, along a route where agricultural fields are a constant presence. Vineyards and fruit trees characterise the landscape and their colours, which vary depending on the time of year, form a natural and diverse palette of colours. In addition to all the existing railway heritage, Pedras Salgadas, Vidago and Chaves stand out, both known for their famous thermal waters. Would you like to download the route of this Eco-Trail?
