Overview
Depart from Porto’s city center and head to the Arouca Geopark with comfortable transportation and a professional driver. The experience begins with the crossing of the 516 Arouca Suspension Bridge, one of the longest in the world, suspended 175 meters above the Paiva River. Thrill and breathtaking views guaranteed!
Prefer not to cross the bridge? A 4x4 transfer is available to take you to the other side.
Next, explore the Paiva Walkway, a stunning hike along the river that passes through forests, waterfalls, and breathtaking natural scenery.
After a refreshing stop at Vau River Beach with snacks and fresh fruit, the hike ends in Espiunca, where you can relax by the river, go for a swim, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
If your booking includes lunch, enjoy a traditional Portuguese dish accompanied by local wine and conclude with Arouca’s famous conventual sweets.

Due to recent wildfires, a small section (approx. 2 km / 1.2 miles) of the Paiva Walkways is temporarily closed by local authorities for safety.
