Fraga da Pena Waterfall is as one of the most interesting natural resources of the Protected Landscape of Açor Mountain. This cascade flows in a very narrow valley, which creates an unexpected landscape of schist stones covered by vegetation. The waters of Barroca das Degrainhas flow into this high waterfall.

Piódão it's a precious gem, this tiny schist village preserved in the mountains. Classified national heritage.
The houses in Piódão are placed in a quite interesting way in a natural amphitheatre. The applied construction material is the schist, used in the houses, roofs and street pavements. In contrast to these dark colours, the local church is painted in an immaculate white. The residential area is surrounded by an immense green landscape.

The village of Foz d’Égua belongs to the parish of Piódão and shares with it the mystical beauty of the Açor Sierra. The village is characterized by its rural aspect, with its typical houses of shale and slate, surrounded by nature in its purest state, rich in fauna and flora which here find their natural habitat.
