Just Natur: Hospitality and Living Nature in Castro Laboreiro

Mountain, stone and presence

Just Natur, located in Castro Laboreiro, a village in the municipality of Melgaço, in the heart of the Peneda-Gerês National Park, is a tourist entertainment and local accommodation company deeply rooted in the territory.
Here, nature is not a backdrop: it imposes itself from the first moment. The grandeur of the mountains and the almost sculptural beauty of the granite create a setting of such intensity that, on arrival, the senses seem to suspend themselves.

Welcome, home and local culture

In guesthouse Just Natur, located in the centre of the village, welcomes guests with warm, genuine, almost family hospitality.
It's the impetus for a journey through the intricacies of local culture - an immersion where regional, home-cooked flavours intersect with stories, gestures and knowledge passed down through generations.

Walking, interpreting, discovering

From here, multiple possibilities for discovery open up: walking routes and tours guided tours of the national park, always accompanied by an attentive reading of the landscape and its cultural dimension.
Highlights include visits to the brandas and inverneiras, which are essential for understanding the uniqueness of Castro's transhumance - a way of life moulded by the mountains, the seasons and human resilience.
Also not to be missed is the climb to the ruins of Castro Laboreiro Castle, from where you can enjoy a view that will expand your heartbeat and your sense of belonging to this extreme and beautiful land.
Wherever you go, the constant presence of clean, fresh, fragrant air becomes a silent companion to the experience.

Knowledge of the land and table

Just Natur's proposal extends to gastronomy and everyday knowledge.
The workshops Culinary workshops invite you to actively participate in the preparation of traditional recipes, while a visit to the lodge's vegetable garden, cultivated according to traditional and organic farming principles, reveals the intimate connection between the land and the table.
The discovery of the Chocolate Museum also pays tribute to the ingenuity and entrepreneurial capacity of the local people, evoking unexpected stories that are part of the identity of this mountain range.

Sharing, staying, feeling

And above all, don't leave without experiencing one of the most memorable moments of the experience: preparing and sharing a meal, which you can collaborate on and which will then be savoured around the table in the company of your hosts.
A simple and deeply human gesture that sums up the spirit of the place.
At Just Natur, the experience doesn't pass: it remains.
