Almost 49 km of undisturbed cycling/walking or running track along a paved former railway line. Largely along the river Dão which not only gives beautiful views but also plenty of opportunity for swimming along the way. Banned to motorised traffic is the former railway line between the towns of Santa Comba Dão and Viseu, the ´Linha do Dão´ which served for almost a hundred years (25 November 1890 - 25 September 1988), now one of the longest ecopistas. Along the way, it is also good to stop at several old railway stations that serve as restaurants and cafes after renovation. The ecopista forms a perfect place to train for cycling, running, rollerblading or just to take a nice walk or bike ride and swim at a river beach. Lugar do Pégo is ideally located for these activities, it couldn't be closer to the ecopista!
