By the last administrative reorganization of the territory of the parishes, according to Law No. 11-A/2013 of January 28, this parish was extinct and merged together with Galafura to form the Galafura and Covelinhas parish, with headquarters in Galafura.[1]
Despite being a small village, Covelinhas has a beautiful landscape and is a good place to rest, fish and enjoy nature. It is regularly visited by many tourists, not only from Portugal but also from other parts of the world.[2]
Covelinhas has the Covelinhas railway station, an interface in the Douro line.
