Trilho dos Moinhos de Sta. Isabel do Monte

The Stª Isabel do Monte Mill Trail runs through the villages of Campos Abades, Rebordochão, Seara, Ventozelo, and Alecrimes, allowing visitors to explore the 28 watermills that are scattered across the plains and along the Ponte and Rebordochão streams.

Each location reveals the rural heritage typical of mountain villages, preserved in a welcoming setting characterized by a natural and perfect harmony that sets this landscape apart from others in the region.

The goal of this trail is to explore the structures that are part an integral part of the bread-making cycle: the water mills, the granaries, the drying sheds and threshing floors, the terraced fields of corn and rye, and the traditional irrigation system .
Added to this are the patches of oak trees, the streams, and the levadas, set within a mountainous and rural landscape that lends the trail a sense of rural excellence.
