Nice walk to a beautiful viewpoint high above the Douro river. A natural paradise, where you can see and hear numerous birds.
Mirador de Las Escaleras gives superb views on the Douro River, embedded in an impressive canyon, where the river reaches the Portuguese dam of Bemposta. The vast extension of the plateau and the stillness of the place is great, but also the vultures you can see flying by like Vultur sur, Vultur negru and Hoitar. Other birds you can encounter are Acvilă de munte, Șerpar, Acvilă mică, Gaie roșie, Gaie neagră, Pupăză, Prigorie and Potârniche cu picioare roșii.

Espagnol: El Río Duero, encajado en un impresionante cañón tallado sobre la penillanura, aquieta su curso al llegar a la presa portuguesa de Bemposta. La vasta extensión mesetaria y la quietud del paraje sorprenden al viajero, que descubre ante sí el quebrado paisaje de los abruptos arribes. Un paraíso natural, lleno de naturaleza y fauna salvaje, donde poder ver y oír a numerosas aves.
You can get there on foot from the center of the Zamoran town of Fermoselle, located 2 km away, or leave your car at the cemetery (1.5 km away) or at the Ermita de Santa Cruz.
