There is a 10k loop #hike in the Peneda-Gerês National Park, which is a medieval path from one village to another. This is one of the highlights of the hike 😎 #nature #mountains #portugal #lake #geres
This photo shows one of my greatest experience of 2019. 🐎❤️ I organize advanced cycling day tours in the Peneda-Geres National Park, and on one occasion we stumbled into a bunch of Garrano #wildhorses. There is always a chance to see them in the Serra da Soajo, but this time there were at least 20 of them. It was a unique experience even for me, although I visit this place quite often. #Geres #Portugal #animals #horses #bicycletour #cycling #nature
