What you can expect

This is a 10 km (6.2 miles) hike to reach seven magnificent natural pools hidden deep within the park — a hidden beauty!
The hike is divided into two stages:
• 5 km (3.1 miles) from the starting point to the pools, where you’ll have 1.5–2 hours to swim and enjoy the area.
• 5 km (3.1 miles) back to the starting point.
The trail is uneven and without shade, but it has no steep slopes. Summer temperatures average around 28°C (82°F), though they can rarely reach up to 40°C (104°F) in August, making the hike more challenging for elderly participants, sedentary individuals, or those with heart conditions or asthma.
Please ensure you are physically fit for this hike.
Important:
• Bring sunscreen, a hat, food for the day (no lunch provided), and plenty of water.
• Group size: 8 to 15 participants, depending on bookings.
Return to Porto is expected around 5:30 PM.
