Côa Walkways 
From the Côa Museum (Museu do Côa), you can take a short walk to the train station by the river, enjoying the enigmatic landscape of the valley that marks the region.


Overcoming a 160 metre slope, the Côa walkways are 930 metres long, through a landscape marked by the terraces of the valley's rugged slopes and the serenity of the Douro and Côa rivers that meet here. Along the path, there are information panels on rock art, local biodiversity, the rivers and the Douro railway line, which are good opportunities to take short breaks and enjoy the view.

The place is the meeting point between the Alto Douro Wine Region (Alto Douro Vinhateiro) and the Côa Valley Archaeological Park (Parque Arqueológico do Vale do Côa), both classified as World Heritage.  The Côa Museum, dedicated to the study of rock engravings over 25,000 years old in this region, is a contemporary building that is well worth a visit.
