It is an incredible place to visit. I went in summer time and there was few water. Still it was a gorgeous view!

Most likely in winter or spring there is full flow of water, thus should be a even better view.

The only way to reach this place is by going through Paiva trails (Passadiços do Paiva). There is a specific schedule to visit this place even though is in the nature together with a small fee. I guess is for maintenance purposes and to control the...

Great scenic view all around, worth visiting.The Paiva Walkways are the best way to explore the Paiva River. Between the beaches of Areinho and Espiunca, where the entrances are located, the walkways are a total of 8 kms long, along the rocky and steep left bank.

They are an excellent way to walk along the river, in an authentic natural sanctuary, home to many species, some of them endangered, and you can take breaks to enjoy the landscape and the local...

Gostei bastante da experiência. Trilho bem adaptado e conservado. Durante toda a caminhada, entre paisagens lindíssimas, apenas se ouve o barulho da corrente do rio. Existem vários miradouros para recuperar o fôlego e pequenas praias para dar um mergulho refrescante. Na minha opinião, este local peca por não ter fontes de água para hidratar (talvez optem por deixar essa função para os bares existentes pelo percurso), mais WC e mais cuidado na segurança dos caminhos de terra batida com inclinação, pois são muito perigosos nas descidas. Ambos os percursos são muito exigentes, pelo que quem tem pouca preparação irá sentir bastantes dificuldades, que no sentido Espiunca - Areiinho, que o inverso. Não é permitida a entrada a animais. É recomendável a compra antecipada dos ingressos pela internet. Comprar no local custa o dobro. Os acessos ao local não são maus, porém os passadiços ficam num local isolado e o acesso é feito pelo meio da serra, pelo que os cuidados devem ser redobrados na estada....

Ich kann nur jedem empfehlen den Passadiços do Paiva zu laufen. Ein wirklich toller Weg, der über knapp 8km,angelegt wurde. Egal von welchem Ende man beginnt ist die Aussicht und die Natur überragend. Mehrere Stellen laden zum baden ein. Picknick nicht vergessen. Wenn man Glück hat kann man Fischotter sehen. Da wir von Espiunca losgelaufen sind war der letzte Aufstieg ziemluch steil, aber gut machbar. Wir haben für die gesammte Strecke knapp 3Stunden gebraucht. Pausen eingerechnet. Fazit... Ein Muss! Wie der ganze Geopark Arouca! Da wir während unseres Aufenthaltes nicht alles geschafft haben kommen wir auf alle Fälle wieder. Auch zu empfehlen : die Mienen am Rio Frades und Regoufe. Keine Bange... An den jeweiligen Enden warten Taxis und bringen einem zum Auto zurück. ( Und eine gigantische Hängebrücke ist im Bau)

Fantastica ruta de casi 9 km. En el extremo de Arinho hay un monte que obliga a subir multitud de escalones. Recomiendo empezar por Arinho para subir todavía con energía frente a hacerlo al final,ya cansado. Tiempo en plan relajado de ida es de 2 horas y media. Sin parar y a buen ritmo 1 hora y media entre las caseta de control. Por la tarde menos caminantes Ahora con el Covid19 solo se venden entradas por 2€ por persona en la página web. Abre a las 8h y la última entrada a las 17h. Hay servicio de taxi para regresar a Arinho. En ambos extremos existe kiosco y merendero. También a la mitad del recorrido. En algunos puntos hay zonas de baño. Por el camino se pueden ver cabras,lagartijas y libélulas

It's a really beautiful place. If you are lucky enough to get a parking spot it's even better, if I don't, don't get mad. it's intended to get there on foot. Well worth it
