The Alto Minho has immeasurable tourist potential as a result of its geographical location in an area of Portugal that is privileged for its morphology, its connection to the sea, the richness of its traditions and its culture.
The Peneda - Gerês National Park offers a luxuriant landscape of greenery and torrents of water from springs, as well as stunning flora and fauna. The sea also offers us beaches and unparalleled images, allowing for water sports and unforgettable summertime. Finally, the people, the friendly and hospitable Minhotos, who, in addition to their centuries-old traditions, offer a vast program of cultural activities, festivals and pilgrimages and gastronomy that is unique in the world.
Arcos de Valdevez is located in the interior of this region and it is there that most of these attractions take place. It's a welcoming and friendly town in constant contact with its river and mountains, which hide unique places accessible by the many trails that pass through them.
