Torre de Moncorvo: the new swing over the river

Now you can swing over the Douro River. The municipality of Torre de Moncorvo is investing in the creation of a swing attached to a cork oak, as well as 16 new viewpoints. This initiative promises to attract visitors, who can now enjoy the unique "unique" landscapes of the Douro and Sabor rivers.

“On this route that covers the entire municipality of Trás-os-Montes, there are emblematic sites such as the Miradouro do Talegre, in the parish of Castedo, where the main attraction is a swing, which is attached to a cork oak.

From this arid place, flanked by granite and cork oaks, the visitor can contemplate the immensity of the unique landscapes of Vale da Vilariça and the valleys of the Douro and Sabor rivers, places where hues are a natural reality where there is no lack of majestic rock formations.

"This viewpoint has received many people, who sometimes even bottle up the accesses to the place where the swing is installed. We just placed a simple swing in a cork oak tree and it has been a delight for adults and children, who come from all over the place. looking for a little peace of mind, after the confinement”, said to Lusa the president of the Parish Council of Castedo, Luísa Ferreira.”

What to do? Take a river cruise with FeelDouro! “Unsurprisingly, the ultimate way to see the Douro Valley in its full glory is from the river itself. With its mouth at Porto, the Douro meanders cross country, reaching the Coa Valley, close to the Spanish border. FeelDouro offers private, fully tailored day-long or multi-night cruises embarking from Porto or Pinhão, spanning 210km of navigational waters with dams and locks aplenty. If you fancy being the captain of your own ship and are licensed to sail, FeelDouro also offers week-long or 15-day charters of boats that sleep between 12 and 16.” See full article - Click here!
