Overview

This tour begins with a pick-up from the meeting point in the city of Porto. We started the tour in a comfortable van for 6 people. We head to the Paiva walkways where you will cross the suspension bridge at Arouca 516: one of the LONGEST SUSPENSION BRIDGE IN THE WORLD! The Arouca bridge is 516m long and 175m high over the Paiva River. The base of the bridge is made of a metal mesh open to the cliff. Has courage? The Paiva Walkways are an extraordinary wooden path in the heart of Arouca Geopark, classified as a UNESCO geological site. You will walk around 8 km, always accompanied by the sound of the waters of the Paiva River, with our guide. Is lunch meat? surprise typical dish baked in clay pots in a typical restaurant in the region. There are fish or vegetarian options. Before returning to Porto, we will visit the city of Arouca and appreciate the local culture and buildings with traditional Portuguese architecture. An admirable experience!
