Barbeita Bridge - Mouro River - Monção - Portugal The bridge over the Mouro River is located in Ponte de Mouro, connecting Barbeita to Ceivães over the Mouro River, in Monção. It is known that a bridge existed at this location at least as early as 1386. It was here that, in that year, the historic meeting between King John I and the Duke of Lancaster, pretender to the throne of Castile, took place. The marriage of the Portuguese king to Philippa of Lancaster, the duke's daughter, was also arranged. The old bridge visible today underwent renovations in 1627.

The terraces of the Vez Valley, between Padrão and Porta Cova, are a masterpiece of the relationship between man and nature. Created by our ancestors to cultivate the land and ensure their livelihood, they change with each season, painting the landscape with ever-new colors. It is no wonder that this unique landscape was elected one of the “7 Wonders of Portugal” in the Rural Village category.

This dreamlike path leads mostly on boardwalks along the river bank. It is mostly shaded and is therefore extremely pleasant to walk on even on hot days. Here and there you come to the river again and again and can put your feet in the refreshing water or even bathe.
