GEOCACHING POINT
GC3BG1R-Alto do Poio, Rouqueira, Mação
“The Alto Poio (Rouqueira) viewpoint is at an altitude of around 415 m and is located at the eastern end of the Serra das Aguas Quentes (Carvoeiro).
This mountain has an east-west orientation and is about 5 km long.
From this remarkable vantage point, the hiker has a superior view over the northern side of the parish of Carvoeiro and its border areas with the district of Castelo Branco. Here, in this deep valley, are the villages of Rouqueira, Galega, Feiteira and Pereiro do Carvoeiro.
This is one of the points where the municipality of Mação “says goodbye” and, consequently, the district of Santarém.
The following territories belong to GEOPARK NATURTEJO, in the neighboring municipality of Proença-a-Nova.
