Ecopista Ribeirinha
The Riverside Ecopista of Peso da Régua, the result of an urban regeneration operation “Frente Douro”, offers a path along the bank of the Douro River that bathes the city, being used by cyclists and walkers for the enjoyment of nature or for sports. The riverside area crossed by the ecopista has enormous environmental and landscape value, in an area classified as World Heritage by UNESCO, and from where it is possible to glimpse the Metallic Bridge and access the Douro Museum.
