Itinerary description
May was a perfect month to complete this 11.5 km circular trail, with beautiful floral colours across the landscape.
Starting in Castro Laboreiro the first two kms are generally an easy climb, before heading downwards to the river (5.5 kms) and the "Ponte da Cava da Velha".
There are a couple of rivers on this trail that gives you an opportunity to cool down in the water.
The climb back up took us (7.2 km) along part of another trail running alongside the course of the river, but looking down from the side of the hill.
Passing the "Peneda-Gerês Canyoning Center" (9.4 kms) you then work down towards the river, before the final climb to the start point where a nice drink was very well received.
Generally a well marked trial.
Rated 4.5 / 5.0
