Trail of Moinhos and Regadios

The Trail of Moínhos and Regadios Tradicionais covers the rural villages of Lagoa, Sequeirós and Pergoim, belonging to the parish of Chamoim. It presents an extension of 9 km, about 4 hours long and with an average/high degree of difficulty. The maximum altimetry quota of 590m will be achieved at Sítio do Espigão, identified as a viewpoint, and the lowest quota of 140m, on the bank of Rio Homem. This trail is a rural route that gives a recognition of the usefulness and value of ancient road networks which are no longer used, such as footpaths and paving stoned agricultural roads. Water lines, watercourses, wells, irrigation schemes and the watermills, as a whole, are authentic relics of popular architecture of ancient times. The Trail of Moínhos e Regadios Tradicionais include a small section of the Via Militar Romana XVIII of Antoninus Itinerary, between miles XXI and XXII. The pavement, in excellent condition, is walled in granite masonry.
