Overview

On this walk, guests will be explained how the life and culture of the locals develops.

It is a route of moderate to difficult difficulty, with an ascending and descending direction, and which requires considerable physical availability (7km / 3.4 mi, with an elevation level of 400m).

This path gives us an image of what the Douro is like, with its vineyards, olive groves and fruit trees and also shows that it is a region of hard and difficult work due to its slopes.

At the end of the walk we have a picnic with homemade and local products. Douro table wine and Port wine are also included.

    This was one of my favorite tours I have taken in Portugal!!!....This is Not a Walk in the Vineyards it is a Hike! Make sure you have good Tennis/hiking shoes and 1 to 2 Liters of water!....You Hike to one of the best Scenic views in the Douro Valley! And then back down through Vineyards and even some Cork trees….Lunch was from Antonio’s kitchen and his family Vineyard’s including Port, Wine, Honey, Salad….Perhaps the Cheese and Sausage were from a Small market. Exceptional Tour!...Do this tour!....I can now Justify all the Nata’s I have eaten in Portugal!

    Our tour guide Antonio was amazing and the hiking tour was perfect. The views were stunning and the information Antonio provided was amazing. He shared a lot about local culture and his own families connections to the area. The picnic at the end was amazing and the food and wine were all prepared by his family. We would recommend doing a hiking tour with Antonio, you will not be disappointed!

    Excellent! Highly recommend this hike with Antonio. He’s very knowledgeable about the region and the wine making process, the scenery is so beautiful, and the picnic at the end is the best meal you’ll have during your stay!

    We had a wonderful day with Antonio. The walking tour was one of the best that we have experienced in our travels. The lunch that was prepared was on of the best we experienced on our twelve day trip in Portugal. I would recommend that if you are traveling in or near this area, this is a must do!

    Antonio was exceptional in communication prior to the trip. He was so accommodating when we became aware of the train strike that would affect our arrival time in Pinhao We were met by David and Maria who were great guides. They taught us a lot about the wines and farming and history of the region whilst being just great company on a 7km hike up 330 m and back down again. The picnic was all local produce and soo good!!
