Discover magical sites and chart an encounter with nature in a perfect setting for exercising and practising adventure sports. Come to Portugal! Feel the energy!
Climb to the top of extinct volcanoes and discover hidden lagoons, as blue as the sky above, or green as the surrounding lush vegetation. Always with the sea as a backdrop… only possible in the islands of the Azores!
Or follow a water-course in the midst of a forest... in Madeira it's worth the effort. As you wander, you'll be able to gather flowers of every colour and see nature in its most exuberant form.
Ever gone handgliding or stared up at a multicolour sky? It's an unforgettable experience. You can handglide close to the Serra da Estrela, the highest peak in mainland Portugal, and soak up a very different perspective of the landscape.
But there's much more. In the Peneda-Gerês National Park or Portugal’s 13 Natural Parks you can enjoy some eco-tourism - following pedestrian trails, trekking, orienteering, BTT riding or rafting. You’ll discover different customs and experience Portuguese hospitality at its finest – there’s a wonderful reception awaiting you!
For those who prefer the sea, the Atlantic Ocean won't disappoint... we have some of the world's finest locations for surfing, windsurfing or bodyboarding.
Escape into the midst of nature in Portugal and feel at harmony with life! |
