Tips from the Community

Pacmen64 🇵🇹
January 1, 2026, Ponte Romana de Sumes

Bridge built over the Cavalos River, with a deck approximately 50 m long and 3 m wide. It probably forms part of the same road link as the Roman road of Pedra da Sé, serving as a connection between the Roman civitas of Bobadela and that of Viseu. It has only one arch with a perfect semicircular span, and the pavement that forms part of the deck is the result of intervention after the time of construction. It has been classified as a Property of Public Interest (IIP) since 1990, by Decree No. 163 of July 17, 1990.

Penedo C'Abana is a large rocky outcrop located near Póvoa de Midões, on the slope overlooking the Mondego River. It provides a prominent viewpoint overlooking the river and the municipality of Tábua. It has the unique characteristic of swaying slightly when pressed upon, shaking it. Penedo C'Abana is classified as a Property of Public Interest.

Small but very pleasant river beach (without sand) on the course of the Rio de Cavalos.

The Trilho dos Gaios runs along the banks of the Rio de Cavalos. It starts at the river beach of Vale de Gaios and goes all the way to the ancient Roman Bridge of Sumes. Along this route you can see several waterfalls hidden among the lush vegetation and moss-covered rocks.

The Roman Bridge of Sumes, with its round arch, is a stone masonry structure measuring approximately 6.4 metres. It stands over the Cavalos River, in a natural setting, punctuated by enormous granite rocks and crisscrossed by dirt paths. This is where the fantastic Trilho dos Gaios begins (or ends), winding along the Cavalos River between several waterfalls and lush vegetation.

Due to the steep slope of this region, the route moves away from the river and follows old rural paths, where stone steps mark the ascent. The route requires caution, especially when crossing areas where the water has carved its own path in the rock. At the top of the ridge, the reward is a breathtaking view over the valley. In the distance, Benfeita stands out, one of the "white villages" of the network of schist villages, nestled on the edge of the protected landscape of the Serra do Açor.

The Roman Bridge of Sumes stands over the River des Chevaliers, shrouded in mystery. Although its foundations appear to be Roman, the exact date of its construction remains uncertain. An inscription reading "80 AD" found on a nearby wall suggests its origin, but some historians believe it refers to an ancient spring. In the surrounding area, traces of medieval paving can still be seen. Regardless of the bridge's uncertain age, it is classified as a Property of Public Interest, having witnessed centuries of history.
