¿Quieres escapar del bullicio y del ajetreo de la ciudad? nada mejor como perderse en el Parque Natural de Peneda-Gerês. Todo su entorno ofrece la posibilidad de hacer numerosos paseos y ver aldeas como Soajo y Sistelo. Para alojarse tenemos a menos de media hora la Casa do Rio Vez.
En la aldea de Soajo podemos ver los espigueros, una especie de hórreos que fueron construidos para secar el maíz gordo cuyo cultivo fue introducido en el s. XVII. Son los conjuntos más grandes e impresionantes del país. La aldea de Soajo, que hoy día cuenta con varias casas de turismo rural, disputa con la aldea de Lindoso la fama de tener el campo de hórreos más representativo del país.
Sistelo, nos sorprende por su belleza y por su singularidad. Se sitúa en el fondo del valle, a pie del río Vez. Las tierras se conforman en bancales, "socalcos", ganándole de esta forma, terreno cultivable a la ladera de la montaña y dejando un paisaje espectacular.
