Parque del río Barosa
The River Barosa park is an obligatory stop-off on the Camino Portugués to Santiago. It's highly recommended for all those who would like to savour the beauty of the scenery. This park also has a cultural appeal, as the different trails running through it lead to a large number of river mills, allowing visitors to learn more about their structure and function. The park features a recreation area and two restored mills now serving as restaurants
