After meeting at the meeting point, we will descend on a 6km ride in a 4WD vehicle to the Côa Valley Archaeological Park. Breathtaking landscapes between ancient stone walls, olive groves, almond groves and vineyards. The guided interpretive tour allows you to discover the landscape at the same time as we travel back in time to the Upper Paleolithic where we can see, in the place where they were recorded, rock art with approximately 30 thousand years of history!!! The natural riverside environment, the sounds and smells are the perfect setting for this journey through time!

Castelo Melhor
Meeting point is in the historic village of Castelo Melhor.
The Castelo Melhor castle is one of the best examples of a secondary medieval fortress, built in one of the most peripheral areas of the peninsular kingdoms.
The original work is Leonese and dates back to the beginning of the 13th century, when there was an intense fortification of the Riba-Côa line, an area constantly disputed by the Portuguese and Castilian monarchs. It was in this context that Afonso VII, in 1209 or 1210, ordered the construction of the fortress, simultaneously giving it a charter, in an attempt to consolidate population and military, which proved to be of relative importance in the following two centuries.
Less than a century later, with the Treaty of Alcanices (1297), Castelo Melhor passed to the Portuguese crown
