An incredible 8-KM walkway along the bank of Paiva River in Arouca, Portugal. The walkway stretches across the sprawling natural terrain. The wooden walkways cling to the mountain side a winding staircase that leads to the top of a huge hill. This is providing a stunning 360° panoramic view of the terrain. It is an extremely narrow wooden bridge that spans across the river surrounded by soaring cliffs, sweeping views of waterfalls, quartz crystal deposits, exotic fauna and flora, and abundant natural vegetation.
The Paiva Walkways was opened in July 2015, and the route begins from the river beach Areinho and finishes at another beach Espiunca. Last year in September, a devastating wildfire damaged over 600 meters of wooden walkways. However, the authorities have done restoration work quite briskly and reopened for the public. The Passive Walkways were completed by Arouca Municipality and the engineering company trimetrica.
