Arouca walks

Hike along the Paiva footbridges trail, passing the 516-metre-long Arouca footbridge. In March, there are very few people, which is ideal for the location (as you have to pass others on the steps). To do the round trip, you need to start from Areinho. There is a car park below the road and a bar-restaurant (with toilets) offering provisions for the hike, so it’s the perfect starting point. The steps begin very soon after setting off. The site offers a taxi service to take you back to the starting point.

Immerse yourself in the soul of Porto on this walk through some of the city's most iconic locations. From the majestic Torre dos Clérigos with its exceptional views, to São Bento station with its historic azulejos, to the Lello bookshop that inspired Harry Potter, this cultural walk will take you from the spirituality of Baroque churches to the peaceful gardens of Cordoaria. An authentic journey that combines architectural heritage, a thousand years of history and natural beauty, revealing the secrets of a timeless city where every stone tells the story of Portugal. A unique immersive experience to understand the essence of this city on the Douro, between tradition and modernity, in the enchanting setting of its cobbled streets and breathtaking views.

A day spent strolling around Aveiro, along the canals and in the historic centre.
