Explore the Arouca Geopark
In this UNESCO Global Geopark, there are hiking trails to explore, discover, and capture in the best photo albums of your memory. Fabulous routes to let the adventure flow on mountain bikes. Explosions of adrenaline await in Paiva’s adventure sports.
Traditional villages that preserve and carry forward the memory of those who lived and live here into the future. Handicrafts, folklore, and traditions that continue to tell our story.
And all of this, everything that is part of us and defines us, is kept here, preserved, waiting to be told and left as a legacy for generations to come.
