Highlights

Hike through the stunning vineyards of the Douro Valley to the picturesque village of Pinhão, surrounded by the world's oldest demarcated wine region and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking views of the valley's terraced vineyards. Around midday, we'll stop for a picnic (not included – please bring your own food and drinks) before continuing the hike to Pinhão, where you'll have time to visit its historic train station. The hike is approximately 9 km and is rated easy to moderate for those comfortable walking long distances. It may be challenging for less experienced hikers. During August and September, temperatures can reach 40°C (104°F). We expect to return to Porto around 5:00 PM. A minimum of 3 participants is required for this tour to operate.

About Porto

Porto tumbles down steep hills to the Douro River, a granite city of tiled churches, riverside cellars and port wine aged across the water.

The Ribeira district lines the riverbank with colourful houses, cafés and boats, part of a UNESCO-listed old centre beneath the iron arches of the Dom Luís I Bridge. Above it, the São Bento station hall is covered in blue-and-white azulejo tiles, the Clérigos Tower rises above the rooftops, and the Sé cathedral stands on its hill.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
