Espiunca is a small village in Rio Paiva (Paiva River). A new wooden walkway is almost ready which will take us for a 10km walk along the river banks or you can adventure in one of the few paths along the mountain. Some river beaches can be found and used :-) There's nothing around: just the sound of the river and the sound of Nature! Portugal

Experiência incrível.
Experiência incrível, espaço maravilhoso, cuidado e super bem organizado. O conceito é fenomenal e resulta super bem. A vista é inexplicável, bem como o silêncio. O sr. João é duma amabilidade que não tem palavras. Toda a gente deveria viver uma experiência assim, é única.
