Gola do Salto is one of the most impressive waterfalls on the Paiva River — a narrow gorge where the river roars with force. It is located next to the Espiunca bridge, where a suspended viewpoint offers you a privileged view and a natural concert with the sound of the waters echoing beneath your feet. The walkway that follows this landscape makes the route comfortable and accessible, even on naturally rocky and uneven terrain.

These trails, which stretch along the cliffs of Frecha da Mizarela, offer stunning views of the highest waterfall in mainland Portugal. At every step, the immensity of the mountainous landscape surprises you, making each steep climb a reward in itself.

The bar at the entrance to the boardwalk path is open from 10am to 8pm when the weather is good. There are many nice places to sit right by the river.

Entrance to the wooden walkway from Espiunca. From here, if you walk at a leisurely pace, it will take you about 2 hours to get to the Arouca suspension bridge. Halfway along the way, you will find another snack bar and many information boards along the way.
