Attractions and Places To See around Chouto - Top 3

It was built in 1932/33 by the first settler families of the village to process the grown grain, especially wheat and oats, into flour. Since suitable watercourses were lacking, wind power was used to drive the millstones. The cylindrical mill was an important part of agricultural self-sufficiency. After pine forests were planted in its vicinity, the wind flow decreased so much that operations had to be discontinued.

Its main function was to grind the cereals cultivated in the region, transforming them into flour. The Mill was in ruins for decades, but after restoration works, it is now a pleasant space to enjoy the surrounding landscape and discover more about the milling and production of cereals in the region. Several tables and benches are available on site for picnics. There is also a sink and a water point, a grill for barbecues and an oven for baking bread.

Route with excellent brand new asphalt, because just before it was a dirt road. You can see the dirt road on Street View. The road has very beautiful landscapes and very little road traffic.

This is a cafe called "Estou no trabalho". It means "I'm at work". So, the husband is at the cafe and his wife calls him to find out where he is. Then, the husband says he's at work. And, which is true! 😂🤪🤣😇

Basic bicycle handling and repair center. There is even a fountain, a café and a pharmacy nearby.

Very simple small village restaurant. Very warm and friendly welcome. Very generous cuisine, very well served. I recommend the free-range chicken raised in this same village. The restaurant has a place to keep bicycles. The region lends itself very well to the practice of road cycling with beautiful roads in the middle of the countryside and with very little car traffic.
