About the area
In this part of Portugal you can experience a completely different life than we normally live in the mordern word. In this place you will find peace, and solidarity with nature. The few who still live in villages in this mountains, are living a simple calm life on a small patch of land. The villages has a chapel and narrow streets with pretty closely built houses. Traditionally build with a specieal technice of stones. The river is the vene of the land and gives water to the growings. The mountains offers a fantastic view and no pictures makes justice of the magnitude. This is one of my absolute favorite places in the world and I am so pleased to be able both to you that have the possibility of visisting it but also to help to continue living in this village who are otherwise at risk of getting empty.For excursions around the area you can go and see Fajão a village with EU money has built up as it was 100 years ago. All houses are made in the old style stone construction, it has a small museum, and a restaurant with a dish that is widely known lamb cooked in wine.
Arganil is the nearest city where you can go every Friday at a local market that sells traditional crafts, locally grown vegetables and various delicacies. Charming!
Hike along mountain trails, eat of the fruit of the season, cherries, strawberries, figs and more. The only thing you have to do is to enjoy, and respect the life that already exists here.
A magnificent pond to visit with a surreal wiev. Stories around the dam construction are many and it's exciting to get them told one of the locals.
