The N222 is in fashion because it was considered the most beautiful road in the world. Start your journey in Gaia, always towards Pinhão and admire its beautiful landscape.
If you've heard about the Nacional 222, you know that it's a route that you can't miss in the Douro.
The 222 National Road has long been famous for its beautiful surroundings, which offer an unparalleled feeling of freedom, particularly when driving.
The road runs from Vila Nova de Gaia to Vila Nova de Foz Côa, passing through Cinfães do Douro, Resende, Peso da Régua, Pinhão and São João da Pesqueira, covering some 226.3 km.
The road's fame grew even more when, in 2015, the stretch linking Peso da Régua to Pinhão, entirely accompanied by the River Douro and the meandering vineyards of the region, was considered the best stretch of road in the world to drive.
The N222 is a road of great importance to the region, as it connects several cities and towns in the north of Portugal, making it possible to transport people and goods. In addition, its beauty has been of great importance to the tourist sector.
The 27 km stretch that connects Peso da Régua to Pinhão has gained special prominence due to its beauty. Here you can see all the beauty of the region, constantly accompanied by the terraces of vineyards that characterize the region, with the Douro, on a good sunny day, acting as a mirror of water that gives a special glow to all this hormania created between nature and the work of man. Some even consider it the Portuguese Route 66.
Naturally, N222 has become increasingly popular with tourists visiting the Douro region, due to the incredible views over the river and the Wine Estates that spread across the hillsides.
