On December 23rd, Adventours will be trekking to the Teixeira Valley, one of the ex-libris of the Serra do Gerês. We will walk along the trails used by local shepherds in the famous vezeiras. The vezeira is a practice of pastoral organization, which consists of bringing together the flocks of a village to be grazed on common land - baldios. It is based on the grouping together of livestock owners, following established rules for the functioning of this form of community, passed down from generation to generation. The main role of all the members of the vezeira is to lead the herd in turn. On this trek we'll pass through some of the most scenic meadows in the Serra do Gerês, such as Lomba do Vidoeiro or Teixeira, and we'll walk along the banks of the River Arado, enjoying its lagoons and waterfalls. If you love trekking, don't miss this adventure! Come and live your dream adventure in Gerês with Adventours®!
