Overview

This full-day tour lasts about 9 to 10 hours and begins with a 4x4 Land Rover pickup at a meeting point in Porto. The drive to Peneda-Gerês National Park takes around 1 hour and 40 minutes. Once inside the park, participants start with a beginner-friendly kayak session on Caniçada Lake that lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes. The lake is surrounded by mountain landscapes, and there is a stop at a small sandy beach where guests can swim, relax, or try stand-up paddleboarding. After kayaking, the group enjoys lunch at a local restaurant serving traditional dishes along with vinho verde wine. Following the meal, there is a short walk of approximately 25 minutes each way on a path that has some uphill and downhill sections and may be slippery or require scrambling over rocks. This trail leads to a waterfall where visitors can swim in clear water. Throughout the day, the guide provides information about the cultural and traditional aspects of the park's villages and supports an environmental project in the area. The tour includes all kayaking equipment, insurance, and pickup and drop-off at preselected points. The Land Rover used is vintage and designed for mountainous terrain but may offer a less comfortable ride on some stretches. The tour welcomes participants aged 5 to 75 and offers vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free meal options if requested in advance. Travelers with knee problems are advised not to take this tour.
