Marateca Route

“The Marateca Route develops between the village of Soalheira in Fundão, and the northern shores of Santa Agueda Dam in the field of Louriçal do Campo, Castelo Branco. The reservoir of Santa Agueda recalls the name of a medieval chapel, which is now submerged and replaced by another built next to the wall. Marateca is the name of one of the leading farms in the countryside located in the dam’s edge. “
