01

Along the village

We leave the estate gate and go down the tarmac road, after the bridge over the stream we turn left and follow the same village road to the T-junction, here the traffic is a little heavier but still not too heavy.

03

After swimming

After swimming and wandering along the river, you can return the same way. Or lengthen your journey a little by turning left at the roundabout in the middle of the path.

02

River beach

Turn right and follow the signs to the old bridge over the Estoraos River, next to which is a beach, an old mill and a nearby café serving sandwiches and snails in season. You can find a great place to swim if you cross the bridge and walk right along the river for about 15 minutes.

01

Between the houses and along the streams

Exit the manor gate and walk down the tarmac road, turn left after the bridge over the stream and follow the same village road to the T-junction. To the right of the bus stop on the other side of the road are wide stone steps – follow them up to the village church. 

02

The way back

From the church square go right to the roundabout with the tree in the middle, cross it and behind the village café you will see a narrow lane (don’t go backwards on the main road!) – follow it, it will lead you to a cross on a small patch of land, from where it is better to go up on the left, there you can go back through the nooks and crannies to our gate.

A walk before bed

Start your walk from the gate next to the upper reservoir and the raspberry patch – leave the gate and turn right, always straight ahead, the village road will take you to the square with the cross, from there you will go to the Roman chapel on the right and to the gate of our Vinte Quinta. This is a very short, easy and pleasant walk.

Parking

We recommend that you travel by car to the Lagoa Environmental Interpretation Centre and park your car near the office.

Lagoa is a chain of flooded lakes interspersed with streams, a nature reserve in a eucalyptus forest. A peaceful and easy walk, also possible with a pram. Forest paths with wooden decks over the water, lots of animals and corners to explore.

02

Wooden decks and viewpoints

From the office, turn left, then right up the wooden path and keep right. The walk only takes 30-40 minutes if you don’t get into birdwatching on the way.
