The large grove and the streams that flow into the Miño River offer a wide perspective of the reservoir, allowing an appreciation of both its structure and the power plant. From this point, the riverbed can also be seen as it descends towards the confluence with the Sil, highlighting the changes the landscape has undergone since the reservoir’s construction. On the mountain slopes, ancient villages and vineyards can be distinguished, as well as the road and railway bridges that connect the two municipalities and provinces, adding historical and functional value to the surroundings.

From the Os Peares train station, one can travel to Monforte de Lemos, enjoying the river journey along the Miño, Sil, and Cabe, with the possibility to visit its historic center and painting museum. In the opposite direction, the train allows reaching the city of Ourense, where you can cross the Roman bridge, visit the Cathedral, and enjoy the Burgas, thermal springs that emerge in the heart of the historic center.
