Serra da Orada and the Petimão River help to locate Passos in the southwest of Cabeceiras. The municipal description highlights the rugged relief and agriculture, along with the municipalities of Celorico of Basto and Fafe.
The church of São Sebastião, the cruises and the alminhas add references built to the reading of the landscape. Rio, Serra and patrimony are complementary clues to know this land; they do not make up a pedestrian itinerary here nor confirm accesses.
In the description of Passos, the municipality also refers to the neighborhood of the old parishes of Outeiro, Refojos and Alvite. This proximity scale helps to situate the mountain and river within a shared territory. Administrative boundaries and landscape elements are different ways of reading the same space.
