POTD: Carrapatelo Lock

From 2025 12 31 Porto, Lamego, Castelo Rodrigo

Beginning our cruise up Portugal's Douro River, today's photo-of-the-day is from the Carrapatelo Lock. It is one of the deepest and highest river locks in Europe, featuring a large water level change of about 35 meters (115 feet).


"Deep within the lock
Portugal's river rises
To the upper Douro."
