ECOTOURISM:
There are several spots ideal for enjoying nature. To the north, very close to Envendos, you can find the dam of Pracana, an ideal place for fishing, followed by the river beach of Carvoeiro, the perfect place for a nice summer afternoon swimming and sunbathing. As for therapeutical waters, we have the hot springs of Ladeira close by and, hidden in the midst of the green scarps, Pego da Rainha: the legendary place where one of our Queens used to bathe herself along with her maids. Here you can enjoy the wonderful lake and waterfall or the surrounding area for a picnic.
South of Quinta do Ribeirinho, is Belver with its castle and the traditional medieval fair that takes place every summer. Also in Belver you can find a Dam in the Tagus River, the magnificent view of the belvedere of Outeirinho and the famous river beach of Alamal.
Leaving our village of Vilar da Mó and following the road to your left, you’ll find Ribeira de Eiras, an excellent location for a summer or autumn afternoon of leisure.
Mação and Gavião, the nearest towns, have their attractions as well. The historical churches, the Archaeological Museum of Mação and the River Tagus with all its splendour, are just a few reasons for a small trip.
If you enjoy railroad trips there are several short routes we can recommend. Marked by the beauty of the landscape, they will forever remain in your memory.
