    Description

      Discover with us the landscape charms that this geological park has to offer you! Let yourself be enchanted by the potential of this park, from the geosites, the walkways of Paiva, the pedestrian suspension bridge that claims to be the longest in the world, named 516 Arouca and measuring 516 metres in length and of course and the landscapes along the tour route.

      If you're looking for a fun and exciting way to enjoy the open water, why not venture on an adventure of canyoning, canoeing, kayaking or climbing.

      The Arouca Geopark, which was recognised by UNESCO in 2009, is a park with a geological heritage of exceptional importance. Its objective is geoconservation, education for sustainable development and tourism. It is considered an authentic open-air museum covering an area of 328km2 and is surrounded by the Freita, Montemuro and Arada Mountains and crossed by several rivers.

      After being surprised by the Arouca’s landscapes and its pages of history, stop your visit and sit at the table and let yourself fall in love with the gastronomy of this region to recharge your batteries.

      The typical main dishes of this region are the famous Arouquesa steak extracted from young animals about 5 to 9 months old, the veal medallions, the grilled veal chops or the Roast Goat meat that is usually roasted in wood-fired ovens, that make the delights of meat connoisseurs who visit the Arouca metropolitan borough council.

      Serve with a white wine of the region "Quinta D'Alagoa" and end your meal with the famous regional and convent sweets that will leave you with a smile on your lips.

      Sweet chestnuts, manjar de língua (sweet made with cow tongue), roscas (kind of sweet bread) e charutos de amêndoa (cigar-shaped sweets filled with eggs and almonds), barrigas de freira (kind of mousse made with bread, eggs and almonds), morcelas doces (sausage-shaped fried sweets) and bola de S. Bernardo (cake made with bread) are some examples of the richness of Aroucas' conventual sweets.

      Dare to come with us to Arouca and enjoy this unique experience.
