Valley of Guadiana Natural Park

Natural wonders with several picturesque villages to visit.

A gem. A delightful surprise.

We were centred at Mértola,, a lovely town with ancient castle with it's original history dating back to 314 BC, churches through the ages, many hills and walks and we'll tended islands and flowers. Running alongside town is the beautiful Guadiana River, with kayaking and boat trips and a couple of excellent hotels overlooking it.

Beautiful nature, hiking, cycling, canoeing, swimming (careful with the currents though)... Vineyards, ruins, mines, caves, and springs with healing waters to be visited. Really pure and fresh air, peace and quiet, history going back a thousand years bce and much, much more.

Very nice and calm place, it wss very hot (44°) but we enjoy our quick stop there
