Germil

Germil is a village in the south east corner of the park. Its picturesque, somewhat touristified (it may be busy in summer), accessible on a long tight single track road along a cliff from Entre Ambos os Rios. The village on the edge of the park so some of the views are down away from the park, I did a 9k walk a little way into the hills above the village and then down into an oak valley of the Ribeira da Baixa below the village. It was a great sunny day, and Germil has the best preserved Fojo do Lobo I've seen, and the walk enables you to look across a narrow valley to it, the Fojo do Lobo is next to an impressive waterfall. The best bit was an old paved trail through the oak valley, which wound back up into the village.
