Fafiao

In the heart of the Peneda-Gerês National Park, Fafião is a small mountain village with a big soul. On this brief but meaningful stop, you’ll explore the traditional granite houses and learn about the strong local identity tied to nature and wolves. We'll visit the historic Fojo do Lobo — an ancient stone structure used to trap wolves — and enjoy a panoramic viewpoint over the rugged Serra do Gerês. It’s a quick dive into mountain life and legends before continuing our adventure through Gerês. A truly authentic moment off the beaten track, without losing the flow of the day.

Cascata Tahiti

One of Gerês' most iconic waterfalls, Cascata do Tahiti (also known as Fecha de Barjas), is a breathtaking natural gem. On this short 15-minute stop, you'll have the chance to admire its crystal-clear waters cascading over smooth granite rocks in a serene forest setting. It’s the perfect moment for photos, a deep breath of fresh mountain air, and a taste of Gerês' raw beauty without the long hike. Please note: due to safety and time constraints, we enjoy the view from a panoramic spot close to the road — not a swimming or trekking stop. A short but memorable moment to connect with nature before we continue our adventure through the national park.
