Trilho de S. Miguel até à Ermida (S. Miguel Trail to Ermida)

Ruta de S.Miguel a la Ermida

This is a route that runs through the parishes of Entre Ambos-os-Rios, Germil and Ermida, in the municipality of Ponte da Barca. It runs along the slopes of the valleys where the Froufe River and the Ribeira de Carcerelhe (its tributary) flow.

We are in the middle of the Serra Amarela, in a territory belonging to the Peneda-Gerês National Park, on the left bank of the Lima River. It begins and ends at the church of São Miguel de Entre Ambos-os-Rios (18th century) and takes us to visit the villages of Froufe, Lourido and Ermida. Shortly before this last location, the last 3 km coincide with the GR 34, “Interpretativa da Serra Amarela”. Subsequently, the route is integrated into the GR 1-PTB until the end of the route. In Froufe, we can see corrals to collect own cattle, with typical popular architecture.

It is a route that conquers us for the beauty of the forest (among pine trees, oaks and bushes), the rural environment of subsistence agriculture on terraces, the religious architecture of the churches, chapels and hermitages. In addition to the gorges of the Rio Carcerelhe, the viewpoint of Ermida, etc. In short, an example of rock carvings and imposing mountains that dominate these parts (Serra Amarela and Serra do Soajo).
