About

Join us on exploring the Amarela and Peneda mountain ranges and reach megalithic monuments and engraved rocks.

We’ll drive through both banks of the Lima river to reach archeological sites and amazing views of the valley, and look for clues that tell us the history behind the landscape we can see today.

Learn about the abstract art of the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula and what it meant for human devolopment throught a diversity of symbls and marks on stone.

Admire the local fauna and flora and, depending on the season and weather, bathe in the fresh, clear waters of the mountain waterfalls or soak in the hot springs used since (at least) the Romans.
