Nice views of the Sabor River valley at this point on a large highway. A pause to see how the river has left its mark on this point of the reservoir. Further south is the Miradouro Santo Antão da Barca.

Mogadouro Castle is located in the Trás-os-Montes region in northern Portugal. This castle has a rich history, having been built by the Knights Templar in the 12th century and later passed into the hands of the Order of Christ. Although only a few sections of the wall and a tower remain today, it remains a place of great historical and cultural interest.
