Loriga River Beach
Share Image
Only Portuguese beach located in a glacial valley on the banks of Loriga river, which rises in Estrela mountain upper plateau, and its pure and crystalline waters, being a sanctuary for nature lovers and for those who are looking for calm and serenity.
Good place not only for bathing but also for tours and other nature activities. See also the way the people were able to cultivate this rocky and steep landscape by making terracing and building an irrigation complex network.
