What you can expect

This Tour will take you to one of the most enchanted corner of inland Portugal. Serra de Montemuro is a mountain range situated between the Douro River to the north and the Paiva River to the south. The highest point is 1381 m high. In this part of the country shepherds still do transhumance, a traditional pastoral practice that involves the seasonal migration of herds between different regions to take advantage of pastures at different times of the year. Typically, this migration occurs between summer and winter grazing areas, following an annual pattern. We will take you to one of this trails and visit villages and landscapes almost untouched in the last 50 years. We also visit a Cooperative made up of four woman that produces garments in burel, linen and wool, woven on handlooms, using traditional methods with a contemporary design. And we also pass by the thermal baths where you can have a massage before leaving. This is one of our preferred tours. Come discover why!
