The guided tour begins at sunset next to the reception center in the historic village of Castelo Melhor.
Marco welcomes you and gives you recommendations for this trip through Time!
The descent to the Côa Valley (6 km) is in a 4x4 vehicle between ancient stone walls, olive groves and traditional almond groves. Along the descent we have a remarkable panoramic view of Quinta de Erva Moira, one of the most beautiful Quintas in the Douro.
We begin to travel through time guided by the guide's skill, imagining mountain goats, herds of primitive bulls, horses and deer grazing along the banks of the river and a group of hunter-gatherers who attentively follow the herds preparing for the hunt!
We parked next to the Côa River and when we got out of the car, the sounds, smells and sky enveloped us! We awaken the senses in harmony with the natural environment.
A short walk (300 m) takes us to the 1st of 5 rocks.
By turning on the beaming light, we open the window of time and reveal the art of our ancestors in all its splendor!
