What this experience offers you
On our visit we\'ll first visit the village of Fafião, where people live off pastoralism, cows and goats, and where we still have a wolf trap. We\'ll also have lunch in this village, with typical food.
In the afternoon we\'ll visit the Pedra Bela viewpoint and pass through the Mata de Albergaria, a UNESCO Biogenetic Reserve and fully protected site within the Park.
We\'ll pass through the area of Vilarinho das Furnas, a village that was submerged in order to build a dam, and we\'ll talk about the community way of life that existed in that village and that can still be seen in some parts of the Park.
The visit ends with a tasting of local products in a shop selling products made in the Peneda-Gerês National Park.
