Bemposta Mask Festival

Highlight • Historical Site

In the village of Bemposta, natural charm blends with the soul of traditions. In the heart of the Douro International Natural Park, this village stands on a promontory with breathtaking views: on one side, the imposing Faia da Água Alta and Faia do Cuco stand out; on the other, the plains of Zamora and Salamanca stretch out to the horizon.

And as if the scenery weren’t enough, there’s also the vibrant mask festival, where folklore comes to life in a parade that crosses borders and brings together cultures from various parts of the world.

Faia da Água Alta Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Beautiful waterfall ( to be better seen in wet season) with a hiking loop (with high steps) around it so it's visible from above and below.
