The Zimbro halt was a station on the Sabor line, located in the municipality of Torre de Moncorvo in Portugal.

History

This interface was located on the section of the Sabor line between Pocinho railway station and Carviçais railway station, which entered service on 17 September 1911.[1] The line and the Zimbro halt were closed on 1 August 1988.[2]

The halt is now used as a stop of the Ecopista do Sabor,[3] a greenway that follows the now abandoned Sabor railway line.[4]
