Walking the Tunnels Route - La Fregeneda / Barca D'Alva - 17kms

Our walk will take place on what is now known as the "Route of the Tunnels", which was once the railway line linking Barca d'Alva to La Fregeneda (Spain). The old Douro Line ended at Barca d'Alva, but the railway line continued towards Spain and went as far as Paris. This line was built in 1887 by Eiffel's disciples and ran for almost a century, only closing in 1985. The route between Fregeneda and Barca d'ALva is 17 kilometres long, has 20 tunnels and 8 bridges, and the whole way is accompanied by the beautiful landscapes of Beira Interior and the river Águeda. In the past, the bridges had to be crossed using a metal beam attached to a handrail, but now the bridges have been renovated with wooden walkways that make it much easier to cross them in complete safety.

Points of interest: Bridges, tunnels, footbridges, the River Águeda, the International Bridge, the River Douro, La Fregeneda station, Barca D'Alva station, natural landscapes, etc.

Points of interest: Fundão, Parque do Convento, Monte de São Brás, Miradouro da Pedra D’Hera, Paisagens naturais, etc

A Caminhada da Pedra d’Hera permite ligar o Fundão ao monte a que é sobranceiro – Monte de São Brás – e que sustenta a rocha que pertence à memória colectiva dos fundanenses dando nome a este percurso pedestre: a Pedra D’Hera, Miradouro natural por excelência é envolta por um coberto vegetal e linhas de água cristalina que criam habitats propícios ao aparecimento e desenvolvimento de inúmeras espécies de fauna e flora. O esforço da subida ao Miradouro é bem recompensado pela esplêndida paisagem sobre a Cova da Beira e o flanco Sudeste e Este da serra da Estrela que esta modesta varanda metálica oferece. A pouco mais de 800 m de altitude, este miradouro encontra-se instalado sobre um afloramento de rocha xistosa em alguns pontos ainda revestida por uma planta trepadeira, a hera (Hedera helix) – daí o nome pedra d’hera –, e rodeado por extenso castinçal.

15h15 – Pequeno passeio na Aldeia Histórica de Castelo Novo

Em plena alma da Serra da Gardunha, numa paisagem em anfiteatro natural, em tons de verde e cinza, aquecida pelo sol, descobrimos Castelo Novo, Aldeia Histórica de Portugal, envolta numa aura de misticismo e transcendência. Aqui sentimos algo de fascinante, que nos envolve e harmoniza. Tudo nos inspira, tudo nos cativa…. Desde os sons das águas que brotam das fontes, ao granito perpetuado que ergue a aldeia e talha o casario, os templos, as calçadas, as praças…

Caminhar por Castelo Novo é provar contrastes de cores, sabores e texturas e quando achamos que já descobrimos tudo surge no alto, o imponente castelo que guarda há mais de 800 anos história e segredos. Uma herança templária defendida por corajosas muralhas.

Pontos de interesse: Castelo, Largo do Pelourinho, Antiga Casa da Câmara e Cadeia, Fontes e Chafarizes, etc
