The river Ceira rises in the Serra do Açor and after passing through the municipalities of Arganil and Pampilhosa da Serra it enters the municipality of Góis, in a place called Retorta next to the village of Soito. During its journey, it crosses a large part of the county, following the journey to the Mondego River.
