In our Monastery & Reservoir Discovery Walk (Trail 1) you are invited to embark on a rewarding hike that begins in Óbidos, taking you through stunning landscapes and centuries of history. This accessible journey leads you to Eburobrittium, a fascinating recently discovered ancient Roman city that offers a direct connection to the past.

As you continue, you’ll reach the scenic reservoir, with breathtaking panoramic views, before culminating at the serene Monastery of São Miguel — a magnificent 17th-century building steeped in rich history.
