In Penalva do Castelo
Nestled in the charming village of Cantos, within the municipality of Penalva do Castelo, lies a truly special spot – the Baloiço do Açude de Cantos. This simple, yet profoundly evocative, swing offers a moment of quiet contemplation and connection with the surrounding landscape. The açude (water weir) itself, a historic feature of the area, provides a beautiful backdrop, adding to the serene atmosphere.
Penalva do Castelo, a neighbouring municipality in Mangualde, is known for its picturesque beauty and rich history. It’s a place well worth exploring, and this baloiço serves as a perfect, unassuming invitation to slow down and appreciate the simple pleasures of life. While you’re in the area, consider visiting the Baloiço do Rossio, another beloved swing located in the village of Trancozelos, also within Penalva do Castelo. Getting there is easy – you'll find the location pinpointed as M9C5+8G. It’s a short, pleasant walk from the village centre, and a fantastic experience for all ages.
