734m altitude. Also known as Pico do Barrete. It is located 15 km from the municipal seat of Vila Verde. This mountain is home to the source of the Vade River and some prehistoric archaeological sites. The highest point of this mountain is at Penedos Mourinhos, a natural viewpoint overlooking the Baixo Minho and the Homem River valley. The PR2 - Fojo do Lobo Trail (VVD) passes through this location. Near this viewpoint is a lookout post and a paragliding launch site.
