These swings can be found in many places in Portugal, but this one is more suited to standing than sitting. It offers a beautiful view of the castle, the reservoir, or the town.

The Alqueva Dam, located in the heart of the Alentejo, is one of Europe’s largest dams. Constructed on the Guadiana River and completed in 2002, it creates the Alqueva Reservoir, Western Europe’s largest artificial lake. The dam plays a crucial role in regional irrigation, water supply, and hydroelectric power generation. Additionally, it supports local tourism and wildlife habitats and exemplifies a completely transformational engineering achievement.

It seems like an endless stretch over the reservoir. If you look to one side you have impressive views and if you look to the other…they are even better! Absolutely recommended.
