Castro Laboreiro — Community, Memory & Borderland [Reserve]

Description of Experience


Time, Borderland, and Memory

n the highlands of the border, the pace slows and the horizon opens.

A day to discover a landscape shaped by mountains, memory and the lives of borderland communities.

Along paths, through villages and over local flavours, we explore a territory where life on the border has left deep traces in ways of living and in the relationship with the mountains.


Discover. Understand. Inhabit.

Landscapes reveal the relationship between nature, communities and time.

  • The experiences we propose are just some of the ways of discovering the territory
  • If you are looking for a different way to experience the region, share your interests with us and we will create a proposal that follows your own rhythm: geral@wewantgreen.pt

🍃Coming soon, the WWG Interpreter will make it possible to discover the territory in an even more personal way.
