There is a 10k loop #hike in the Peneda-Gerês National Park, which is a medieval path from one village to another.

This is one of the highlights of the hike 😎

This photo shows one of my greatest experience of 2019. 🐎❤️
I organize advanced cycling day tours in the Peneda-Geres National Park, and on one occasion we stumbled into a bunch of Garrano #wildhorses.

There is always a chance to see them in the Serra da Soajo, but this time there were at least 20 of them. It was a unique experience even for me, although I visit this place quite often.
