Paiva Walkways & 516 Arouca Bridge Day Trip

At the agreed time, we'll meet up at Praia Fluvial do Arieiro and start our four-hour adventure in Arouca Geopark.

Once we're all there, we'll begin our 8 km hike of the Paiva Walkways, the perfect outdoor experience to commune with nature in Northern Portugal.

During our hike along the walkways, we'll be able to admire the main landmarks in this unique area, such as the Garganta do Paiva, the Cascata das Aguieiras, the beautiful Praia Fluvial do Vau, the Gola do Salto, or the Falha da Espiunca.

516 Arouca Bridge

If you want an even more complete experience, you can book the tour option that also includes a visit to the 516 Arouca Bridge. Ready to walk one of the longest pedestrian suspension bridges in the world?

This bridge stands 175 meters above the Paiva River, so from that height, the views of the Aguieira waterfall are absolutely breathtaking.

After five hours, we'll head back to the meet-up point, ending the activity.
