Join me on Sunday November 17 on my favourite walk by the Douro. Let’s meet inside São Bento station at 14:30.

We will then walk down to Ribeira and then along Av. Gustavo Eiffel by the side of the river. We will then climb up to Ponte do Infante, cross the river to Gaia and turn right onto Rua de Cabo Simão. We will descend towards the river, before climbing again to Ponte Luis 1 and Jardim do Morro where, if the Weather Gods are kind, we will watch the sun set behind Ponte da Arrabida.

Then we will return across Ponte Luis I to São Bento.

The distance is about 4 km, with a couple of steep climbs and descents. We will walk at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently to take in the stunning views of Porto and the Douro, the flowers and the wildlife, and the great photo opportunities.

I especially recommend this walk to those who have recently arrived in Porto.
