In Gavião
The Alamal Walkways, located on the banks of the Tagus River, are one of the most enchanting natural corners of inland Portugal. This pedestrian route offers a peaceful and scenic experience, ideal for those looking for contact with nature, relaxing walks, and breathtaking landscapes.
Along the route, visitors are accompanied by privileged views over the Tagus and the imposing Belver Castle, which rises on the opposite bank and gives the scenery an almost cinematic charm. The route is accessible and low in difficulty, making it an excellent option for families, couples, or simply for those who want to disconnect from the fast pace of everyday life.
Nearby is the Alamal River Beach, a very popular spot during the warmer months, with good facilities for leisure time, swimming, and picnics. The combination of walkway, river, and bathing area makes this place a particularly appealing destination for a full-day outing.
The surrounding landscape is marked by the serenity typical of the inland Alentejo and Ribatejo regions, where riverside vegetation, gentle slopes, and the constant shimmer of the Tagus waters come together. It is also an excellent place for landscape photography, nature watching, and walks at sunrise or sunset.
