All about Gerês

Hello Friends!

Today we came to talk about one of our favorite places, The Peneda-Gêres National Park.

The Peneda-Gerês National Park, in the northwest of Portugal, between Alto Minho and Trás-os-Montes, is the only Portuguese protected area classified as a National Park.(Click here to know more)

With all shades of green, the rich vegetation includes a forest of holly, exceptional at a national level, and endemic species such as the lily of Gerês, which cheers the fields with colour. In the Peneda, Soajo, Amarela and Gerês Mountains, which composes the Park, rivers and streams flow, which precipitate into waterfalls and then spread into reservoirs. The views are breath-taking.

Besides all these beautiful natural landscapes, there are thermal baths to relax and many extreme sports.

Big vacations or little getaways to enjoy holidays. Any of these possibilities is a good excuse to pack your bags and leave to discover Gerês, one of the paradises in the North of Portugal, which guarantees a cleanliness to the soul.
