Long description of the experience: The route starts in Moura next to the municipal market. The first point of interest to find is the Roman bridge over the river Brenhas, heading towards the watchtower of Porto Mourão. Then travel a few kilometers along the bank of the Ardila river to Castro da Azougada (Traces of stone fortifications and a line of defensive slopes landed around the hill. The signs of excavations carried out a few years ago are still visible), then continue the route to the crossing point of the Ardila River, is made by boat to the centenary estate das Entre as Águas, where the experience ends.
