Trilho do Campo do Gerês ao Pé de Cabril
Whilst the ascent is straightforward, the return journey is difficult: the return path no longer exists, particularly from the point N 41.74552 O 8.16986 to the finish. It takes over 11 hours to complete the route. Progress is very difficult through the very prickly undergrowth, which causes scratches. Also be careful when following the cairns; there are many of them, but they mark different paths. It’s easy to take the wrong one...
In another region, with a well-maintained path, this walk would have been classified as easy, or even very easy.
On the Rio Caldo in Gerês
The starting point is difficult to access by car, especially if you have low ground clearance. Once there, the car park is very small (approx. 20 spaces) but shaded. Launching canoes or paddleboards is very easy.
It is a short, peaceful trip with plenty of opportunities to pull up and take a break.
