Beira Alta

Nature, heritage and culture

The Beira Alta region is renowned for its traditional villages and unspoiled nature, and its unbounded hospitality. It has much to offer, but it has been overlooked and under-developed from the tourism perspective. With Vale das Lobas as your base camp, there will be an almost unlimited number of outings to be made, to market towns, castle villages, nature reserves, cities such as Guarda and Viseu, and much much more…
