This Experience was carefully designed for true lovers of mountain hikes. This experience provides, in addition to the benefits of mountain hiking, a very direct contact with the ancestral traditions of pastoralism in the villages through the visit to their corrals and shelters, but it also has a very strong natural component of relaxation between places. Everything is programmed at a pace that allows people to enjoy the places without haste so that they can truly take advantage of these places ... For lovers of waterfalls and lagoons it is undoubtedly an asset as several are presented along the route after lunch that are not within the reach of the normal walker ... We have this experience tested with good results so we strongly believe in its quality and we decided to share it with anyone who wants to venture with us. We are waiting for you

This was truly an amazing trek! Our guide was very knowledgeable and very informative. We truly enjoyed the journey, it was by far our favorite experience during our trip to Portugal. If you are a hiker and want a very special experience I highly recommend this trip. When we were tired we took breaks, we brought food and our guide also brought a bunch of food to share with us. I was amazed at the beauty of this area. It was truly breathtaking and absolutely gorgeous!!!! The springs to drink from were fresh and delicious mineral rich water.

Nelson our guide was very helpful and informative, also very easy to get along with. Showed us the least populated spots around the hike for beautiful views and refreshing dips in lagoons and waterfalls. Nelson has a deep passion for hiking and the culture of the place. He was also very accommodating for everyones needs and capabilities throughout the hike. We loved every bit of the journey with Nelsons guidance. I would recommend this trip to anyone seeking adventure and the best that Geres has to offer!!
