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.

5G does not yet work well in this area. I was only able to save a very short part of my ride and could not pin the photos to the route. Hopefully it will get better soon.

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.
