Village of Sistelo

Highlight • Settlement

Located north of the municipality of Arcos de Valdevez, this village is one of the oldest in Alto Minho and is a pearl of nature enclosed in a valley at the gates of Parque Peneda Gerês, very close to the source of the river Vez.

Sistelo is an example of Man's ability to adapt to the singularities and adversities of nature, transforming it to suit his needs and simultaneously creating a picture of rare beauty that are the terraces.

Stone Path - Arrival at Sistelo

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Whether going up or down, due to the type of surface, this small trail seems impossible to do on a bike, whether it's a mountain bike or not. The alternative is to take the bike by hand.
The effort is rewarded by the feeling of walking along a path that locals have walked for decades without having altered or paved it.
