Yesterday I decided to revisit some places and get to know others…always thru national and secondary roads since I left home till the end of the planned ride in Vila Nune.

EN14, EN206, EN310, EN309, EM594, EM600, EM599, EM526, EN205, EN30 … and some unnamed roads.

Last Friday I went to Citânia de Briteiros and during my ride thru EN309 I saw an indication to Portuguediz Waterfall and its watermills, so I decided to visit it yesterday. I’ve done it by riding the EN309 on the opposite direction this time…and it worth it, because the landscape is much more pleasant. I know that it is the same, but we are having a different perspective.

My opinion about this waterfall and watermills was a waste of time. Too dirty … I really had to try to get some “decent” photos.

Second place visited was the old and enormous Oak tree of Calvos. It is indeed an impressive tree and strongly recommend the visit to the oak itself but also to the garden surrounding it that is as well interesting.

Visited the oak time to ride for my next destination, Vieira do Minho, to take my breakfast as always at Pastelaria da Nova.

Vieira do Minho is a nice Village situated on a nice area in the region of Minho and where, nearby, they have the beautiful Serra da Cabreira and serra da Agra

If the ride till Vieira do Minho had been pleasant, not only due to roads but as well due to the landscape, the roads and landscapes that I had ahead were also incredible.

Next planned spot was the small Romanic bridge right between Vilarchão and Anjos. Beautiful location that I strongly recommend the visit

It is not the first time I visited this spot and honestly I’m not get tired to do it.

Although passed beautiful roads, spots and landscapes I did not stop because time was running out.
