You step out under a low, cool sky and the ground drops toward the Mouros River, its current nudging you downstream as it threads the valley. The day begins at Conímbriga’s excavated streets—mosaic floors and carved fountains that anchor your walk in a living Roman past—before the route loosens into riverbank trail and limestone slopes beneath Sicó Mountain.
