Melgaço is a municipality that cherishes our Mother Nature, taking the best she has to offer both at rural areas and at the Town’s centre. In proof of it, there's the Parque Urbano do Rio do
Porto, a pleasant green area designed to approach people and nature, also being a privileged venue for sports practicing.
Walking through the trails surrounded by trees and vegetation, interlined by a small creek, you’ll be amazed by the beauty of the falling water between the rocks. Take advantage of the benches right in front of this creek or the small balcony overlooking it and let go with the flow... An extremely beautiful scenery that invites to relaxation and contemplation.
If you’re more of the active type, you’ll also find plenty to do. On one hand, you'll find the municipal pools, where to practice swimming and hydrogymnastics, the multi-sports precinct and the extreme sports park and, on the other hand, a large area full of trails, bridges and pathways where to jog, walk or cycle.
Is there a better way of doing exercise than in close contact with Nature?
