Unknown places to walk - the river Alva dams
At
the mouth of the river Alva, and near Penacova, there are a number of small dams
that allow a very interesting walk where we can cross the river several times from
one side to the other, as we can see in the photographs of the various walks I
led there.
With
a good knowledge of the region, it is possible to predict the level of water
passing over the dams in such a way that it becomes possible to do the
crossings without remove your boots off.
An
unknown location, which does not come in tourist guides but well worth a visit
and the hiking is fabulous, especially if it's finished with a typical regional
dinner with dishes such as “Chanfana” or a Lamprey Rice. I will write about
theses dishes later.
Let's
walk?
I
will be expecting you.
