With every tour we offer, we plant a tree. While many companies outsource their carbon offsetting to distant projects, we believe in doing the work ourselves — right here in the Peneda-Gerês National Park. That’s why we organise communal planting days, where we, the guides, get our hands dirty: collecting, growing, and planting native trees to restore the forest.
Nestled in the rugged mountains of northern Portugal, Peneda-Gerês National Park is the country’s only national park—and it’s a paradise for nature lovers. While many come for the waterfalls, wild ponies, and granite peaks, the true soul of Gerês lies in its incredible diversity of flora. From ancient oak forests to vibrant wildflowers, the park offers a living library of plant life, shaped by centuries of both natural evolution and human activity.

Fafião is a place rich in tradition and natural beauty, nestled in the heart of Peneda-Gerês National Park. Last week, the villagers of Fafião have lovingly restored their communitarian lagar de azeite (olive press), and it is now operating once again, offering a glimpse into the region’s rich agricultural heritage.

It is probably what the majority of our travellers ask themselves, when they hear me or any other guide, that has adopted this expression from Miguel.
