Provesende - Douro Valley Wine Region
Depending on your physical capabilities, we can plan the following trails together:
- EASY - flat area on a hill top, phenomenal, out of this world views, overlooking the valleys, rivers and wineries. You can also interact with the surrounding nature, centenary vineyards, olive trees, cork-oak trees and shale terraces
- LIGHT - downhill trail from the top of a wine village named Provesende, to the river side village of Pinhao or Casal de Loivos. We will walk through the village center then explore the narrow streets between the vineyards and olive fields. The view going down Pinhão Valley is amazing, revealing a few more hidden gems along the way.
- MODERATE to STRENUOUS - We start from the train station and climb up to the wine village of Provesende, you really need strong legs to do this trail, some trails have an elevation greayer than 18% but it's well worth it! We will pass by wineries, amazing viewpoints and forgotten villages in the middle of nowhere - by the end you will have a great nights sleep!
- GYM MASTER - for pros and off-road jeeps!
We end the tour in a local café or tavern, a chance for you to recover :)
