One of Portugal’s biggest national parks, Peneda-Geres, sits on the country’s northern border with Spain.

Littered with wonderful lakes and lagoons the region is packed with wonderful hidden treats waiting to be discovered.

This tour includes a kayak ride of about 90 minutes' duration, a delicious local lunch with wine included, and a few treks into the forest and up to vantage points where you’ll witness some fantastic panoramic views of the region. This is a great place to take some amazing photos. You’ll then head back to your meeting point to round off an amazing day in pure nature!
