Fermentelos Pateira Route“ Walk”

Known as Pateira de Fermentelos, this is the largest natural lagoon on the Iberian Peninsula. It is a sensitive area and an important NATURA 2000 wetland. It contains habitats, ecosystems and species with national and international protection status. It is in the lagoon that the visitor encounters the natural space and its biophysical components, and it is here that the desire to visit arises. The Pateira is one of Europe's richest ecosystems, with a wide variety of fish and birds, some of them permanent, others seasonal, which see this lagoon as one of their last refuges in a Europe where large habitats are reminders of a distant past. It is against this idyllic backdrop, painted in watercolours, where the sky is reflected in the calm waters of the lagoon and where the sun brushes the horizon in shades of red, that we will walk and enjoy all the surrounding beauty.

Event details

Event Description

This proposed walk takes place in Foz do Arelho, taking advantage of the unique nature of this area, with special emphasis on the shores of Óbidos Lagoon, the Foz do Arelho Walkways and the north coast, as well as part of the Serra de Bouro. Another event not to be missed!

Foz do Arelho

Foz do Arelho has its origins in a fishing community that survived on what the calm waters provided. However, the land along the Óbidos Lagoon was used for agriculture, fertilised with the silt collected. Reports of these lands date back to the year 1580, when the "Quinta de Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe" gained a place in history for its importance in "renting" its land for agriculture, and it seems that this is where the place grew from. The place began to gain prominence in the second half of the 19th century, at a time when beaches began to be prioritised by holidaymakers.

Foz do Arelho was the most popular place, and it quickly became a favourite haunt of some of the most important names in Portuguese society, who often travelled to the spa in Caldas da Rainha.

Among the most honoured visitors were King Carlos I, a great fan of the gastronomy made with fish from the Lagoon, and the businessman Francisco Almeida Grandela, the owner of the well-known Grandela Warehouses in Lisbon, who even considered opening a branch of these warehouses in Caldas. The old town was part of the parish of Serra do Bouro until 1919, and it was in 2009 that it became a town.

Foz do Arelho Walkways

Designed by landscape architect Nádia Schilling, the Foz do Arelho walkway was the way to create a safe path for contemplation and leave the rest of the area free for the growth of spontaneous vegetation. The natural cut of the hillside either covers or blurs the Atlantic Ocean, depending on whether you go up or down the small flights of steps that help you climb the slopes. But when you reach any of the seven viewpoints, with swivelling benches so you can see 360 degrees, the sea is always there (on the best days, you can even see the Berlengas archipelago) and the sunset has a special charm.

Some of the points of interest on the walk

We will go on two magnificent walks: one in Espinhal, at the Pedra Ferida waterfall, with a stop at the Louçainha river beach, and the other in the Fragas de São Simão area, including the walkways, the viewpoint, the Casal de Simão schist village, as well as getting to know part of the Ribeira de Alge. There's also time for a visit to the town of Penela, where we'll visit its castle, a national monument, and a walk in Figueiró dos Vinhos, where we'll visit Malhoa's "Cocoon". Come and join us for another event not to be missed!

TIME: Departure from Lisbon at 7.15am

Walking at the Pedra Ferida Waterfall and Louçainha River Beach

- Natural landscapes

Distance: 12 kilometres

Difficulty: 3.5 (Scale from 1 to 5, 1 being the easiest)

Estimated duration: 4h30

Pedra Ferida Waterfall and Louçainha Beach

The trail runs through the Serra do Espinhal in a valley where the Azenha stream flows, where we'll find the admirable Pedra Ferida waterfall, almost 25 metres high, which forms a delightful natural pool. And if the waterfall is enchanting, the trail that leads to it is enthralling. Along the Ribeira da Azenha, we are treated to lush vegetation, the omnipresent sound of running water, small pools of water, wooden bridges and old watermills. There's even a picnic area where you can enjoy a picnic surrounded by nature. A real enchanted forest to savour slowly.

Praia Fluvial da Louçainha is a small paradise in the municipality of Penela. This refuge is in the middle of the dense Serra do Espinhal. It takes advantage of the naturalness of the Azenha stream due to the construction of several dams with different depths. This place is very popular in the region due to the surrounding landscape, which conveys tranquillity due to the perfect union of the green of the mountains with the crystalline freshness of the waters

1pm - Picnic lunch suggestion (up to each participant)

15h30- Tour of Penela (Castle, Mother Church, Pillory, etc.)

The military occupation of the hill where Penela is located is very old, dating back at least to the Romans, who guarded the Mérida-Conímbriga-Braga road from here. Invaded by the Arabs in 716, it was retaken in the 11th century by Count Sesnando, the first governor of Coimbra. The count had a strong castle built on the site of the alcazaba, which he repopulated, thus creating a Christian town under the protection of the crenellated walls. Graves carved into the rock with anthropomorphic designs remain from this settlement. Its construction dates back to the 11th century, although what can be seen of the castle today only dates back to the 14th and 15th centuries. Inside is the Church of St Michael, whose earliest origins date back to the 12th century. Penela Castle is a National Monument.

17h30- Walk in Figueiró dos Vinhos

Casal de São Simão Schist Trail

Points of interest:

- Schist Village of Casal de São Simão
- River Beach
- Ribeira de Alge
- Ribeira do Fato
- Holms and levadas
- Cork Oak Forest
- Brás Curado Bridge
- Fragas de São Simão and Ermida walkways
- Natural landscapes

Distance: 10 kilometres

Difficulty: 3.5 (Scale from 1 to 5, 1 being the easiest)

Estimated duration: 3h30m

Casal de São Simão Schist Trail

This walk takes place on the walkways of the Fragas de São Simão, visits the schist village of Casal de São Simão and runs along the idyllic banks of the Ribeira de Alge and Fato, where the old watermills still shine, and through the quiet villages of Além da Ribeira, Ponte do Brás Curado and Saondam as well as the river beach of the Fragas de São Simão.

Fragas do Casal de São Simão walkways

The Fragas de São Simão walkway is approximately 2 kilometres long and connects the Schist Village of Casal de São Simão to the lofty Fragas de São Simão viewpoint, passing by the stunning Fragas de São Simão River Beach.

Part of the "Peniche Peninsula" geosite, which is a limestone platform that has been eroded by wind, rain and the sea, you can see the beautiful shapes that erosion has created, forming a lapiás.

Casal de São Simão River Beach

The beach is a 15-minute walk (along the footpath) from the village of Casal de São Simão. The water of the Ribeira de Alge, which passes by on its way to the Zêzere, is so clear that you can see the small stones inside.

The abundance of laurel trees and cork oaks gives the air a comforting fragrance and the green of the surrounding hills, which lead to the Lousã mountain range, envelop us in beautiful scenery. The river beach is located between two imposing crags, where climbing is practised with various equipped routes, abseiling and slides. The "smaller" rocks are used as a solarium or diving board. Walking south, next to the beach, you'll find several levadas and cloaks of the region's original flora.

Schist Village of Casal de São Simão

A small village with practically a single street, essentially built from quartzite. It is located on one of the flanks of the quartzite ridge that gives rise to the Fragas de São Simão and has the oldest church in the municipality of Figueiró dos Vinhos. The village stretches along a ridge almost parallel to the course of the Ribeira de Alge. The entrance is at the highest point and the village ends where the slopes have made it difficult to continue the road.
