Rock art, great site!

The Penascosa site is very important in the Côa Park, surely one of the most exciting.

The best place to to find a contact with the Prehistoric Art.

The area remains quite untouched, not beeing affected by the negative impact of the Pocinho Dam.

The engraved panels border a quiet Côa river, like watching the animals while they were watering.

In a very close site Palaeolithic material (Magdalenian stone tools) has been found.

Horses and cows, Pyrenaic goats and scratched deers show a clear series of superimpositions.

Not far, the Quinta de Ervamoira is a beautiful farm producing one of the best Porto Wines

If any people has some more pictures, please submit here.
