Sabugal Castle

Highlight • Castle

Built on the Côa River, Sabugal Castle preserves centuries of borders and memory. Once part of the Kingdom of León, it passed to Portugal in 1297 and became a strategic staging ground for the Portuguese-British troops during the Third French Invasion.

Today, it continues to stand as a living testament to the long history of one of Europe's oldest nations.

Bridge over the Côa River

Highlight • Bridge

Among the secret corners of Portugal, the Côa River is a discreet treasure. It rises in Fóios and flows through valleys and hills until it joins the Douro River in Vila Nova de Foz Côa. Even here, where it flows gently and seems like just a trickle, the valley reveals all its magic. It's the ideal place to rest for a moment, cool your feet, and let yourself be enveloped by the river's serenity before resuming your journey.

Soito, also called Souto, is now a village, a title it acquired in 1999. The name comes from the chestnut trees that once graced the local landscape. As early as 1527, according to the Royal Register, this was the most important center of the municipality, with 160 residents.

Barragem do Sabugal

Highlight • Lake

Built on the Côa River, its main function is the production of hydroelectric energy and, to a lesser extent, the water supply and regulation of the river flow.

Completed in 2000, its creation gave rise to a reservoir that is partially located within the Serra da Malcata Nature Reserve, a protected area of great ecological importance
