Overview
You will discover the forest and nature at the "Serras do Porto" park. Leave the noise and stress of the city behind and enter in a natural park where you can hike in the mountains, just beside river, cross suspended bridges and visit ancient villages inhabited by only 5 people.
In this perfect bucolic landscapes we will stop for a picnic with traditional products, cheese, fruit, and beverage, including local wine if desired.
During the walk it's usual to see the shepherd and his sheep.
Feel embraced by the nature, this peaceful place where you only hear the relaxing sound of the river and the birds!
Don't forget to bring your camera as you will take amazing photos.

What a wonderful way to spend half a day hiking in a beautiful place. Ricardo is an excellent host and his company (and picnic lunch) is one of the reasons this trek is a must.
