Detailed itinerary
Peneda – Gerês National Park is perhaps the most exciting destination for local and international tourists specifically for nature lovers. We will pick you up at your accommodation at about 9 am and take you out for a day to remember! This tour will show you the most amazing spots of the Peneda Gerês National Park while details about the local traditions, flora and fauna are given by our guides. The park was created in 1971 and since then it has been the only one of its kind in our country. More recently, in 2009, it was declared a World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, status that reinforced the protection measures taken to keep the beauty and natural importance of the region. The total area of the National Park covers around 70 000 hectares; therefore, it has many hidden gems and picturesque locations for you to explore with us.
Along your day you will be able to visit several landmarks of the park, including the famous Tahiti Waterfalls (Fecha de Barjas) where you can enjoy a refreshing swim and the Pedra Bela Viewpoint which has an incredible view over the whole landscape.
