Ecotrail from Ponte de Lima to the river Lima beach

#9

1 hour 10 min

Hiking and river swimming in one

01

To the beach

Just head to the Pilgrims Hostel in Ponte de Lima (you don’t need to cross the river) and start your journey up the river to the left of the Roman bridge. The well-marked path will lead you to a scenic and clean swimming spot, Cais da Garrida. We’d recommend taking hats as the path isn’t very shady.

02

Wine tasting or the way back?

After your swim, you can walk a little further to Quinta do Ameal and ask for the wine tasting (it’s best to book in advance).

You can either return the same way or use our shuttle service to the starting point. Call 913 90 2020.
