Esmoriz boardwalk trails

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Other countries and beachtowns also have wooden walkways, but the length and quality of the boardwalk network along this part of the coast is pretty amazing.

Bridge over the Barrinha de Esmoriz

Highlight • Bridge

On this bridge you can cross the Esmoriz lagoon. The wooden bridge fits perfectly into the landscape. Alternatively, you can walk around the lagoon on a beautiful path. It's best to drive in a circle so that you've seen everything. :)

EcoVia do Litoral - Bairro dos Pescadores Boardwalk, Paramos

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The road ends at the active dunes, but bikers can continue on the wooden boardwalks high above the soft treacherous sand, though short sections are sometimes still affected by sand transported by the coastal winds
