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.

The Santa Comba Dão Viewpoint Route is an invitation to discover the town center and an entire territory dominated by a landscape of forest and river. Outeirinho, Pedra Talhada, and Santo Estêvão are the three viewpoints along the route and the connecting points of this georeferenced pedestrian route, which leads the visitor through a pleasant and cultural journey in the heart of the historic center. A route composed of narrow streets and squares, cobblestone paths and walkways, revealing the changing riverbanks and showcasing authentic architectural and historical treasures that capture the eye and awaken the senses.

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

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.

Tondela is located approximately halfway along the Ecopista, which runs for almost 50 km between Viseu and Santa Comba Dão. The section of the Ecopista that passes through the municipality of Tondela is characterized by green asphalt, distinguishing it from the other sections. The old Tondela station is a fascinating element of the Ecopista do Dão, a reminder of the region's railway history.

This tunnel dives directly into the rock, creating a cool and suggestive passage. You pedal on a well-maintained asphalt and inside the tunnel the lighting is good.

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.
