The PR1 trail from Pateira to \u00c1gueda is, as its name indicates, a route on which we follow the Pateira de Fermentelos<\/strong>, one of the largest natural lagoons on the Iberian Peninsula. On this trail of around 14 km<\/strong>, performed in a circular circular<\/strong>, we cross \u00d3is da Ribeira and Espinhel, starting and ending at the imposing Pateira de Fermentelos.
The leaflet with the route can be found on the website of the Municipality of \u00c1gueda (here<\/a>). The official start of the route is at the \u00d3is da Ribeira Leisure Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just keep in mind that you arrive at the right bank of Pateira, since if you go to the bank of Fermentelos, you have to take a long detour to get back to the starting point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding the parking<\/strong>, this is not a problem, as the Leisure Park has plenty of parking space, many of them in the shade. Here you will also find a restaurant where you can refresh yourself before or after the trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting the route, you can decide which direction to take: towards the houses in that parish or towards Espinhel, starting with a more natural route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our case, we decided randomly and headed towards Espinhel. In this case, we follow forest paths, at a time when it moves further away from the banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the beginning, this first part of the route to the Espinhel Leisure Park may be restricted depending on the time of year in which you take the route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our case, even though we did it in summer, we found some muddy parts and we had to create alternative detours to the route \u2013 it's not very difficult to find these detours but here's a tip for anyone thinking of doing the trail in rainy months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
