Bridge Over the Bestança River

Highlight • Bridge

This is one of the many bridges that span the Bestança River, each inviting you to pause and take in the verdant serenity and the hypnotic murmur of the crystal-clear waters. Some, like the Soutela Bridge, date back to the Middle Ages, while others, more recent, blend harmoniously into the landscape. Whether ancient or modern, they all share one thing in common: breathtaking views.

Path along the Bestança

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This path descends through the valley of the River Bestança along one of the old roads that lead to the Prado area. The Bestança rises at Portas de Montemuro and flows into the Douro: 13.5 kilometres of crystal-clear water, it is one of the purest rivers in Europe.

Its ecological balance sustains otters, trout and genets, while since ancient times, mills scattered throughout the valley have used its waters to grind cereals, especially corn, preserving a valuable rural heritage.
