On the river beach of Areinho is where we start the walk and after km 2 we will go to the suspension bridge 516 Arouca.
After passing, we start the remaining 6 km that provide an “untouched” tour, surrounded by landscapes of unique beauty, in an authentic natural sanctuary, next to whitewater descents, quartz crystals and endangered species in Europe.
