    [description] => 

This 2-centre holiday visits the wilder and less-visited north-east region of Portugal. We’ll be based first in the Côa Valley and then the Tejo International Natural Park, running alongside the border with Spain. After a flight to Porto, we drive east to the delightful old hilltop village of Castelo Rodrigo where we’ll be based for four nights. The village and its surrounds are teeming with birdlife including Southern Grey Shrike, Black-winged Kite and Montagu’s Harrier. During our stay we’ll make an evening visit to a UNESCO World Heritage Site to view the ancient rock carvings, and we’ll also spend a day at the rewilding area of Ermo das Águias, situated in the heart of the Côa Valley, to hopefully spot Golden Eagle and Griffon Vulture. For the second part of the holiday we will drive deep into the heart of the Tejo International Natural Park, one of the least populated regions in Portugal. Here we will make daily walks, exploring the flora and fauna as we pass down the Tagus river.

  • Cirl Bunting, Iberian Magpie, Hoopoe, Golden Oriole & Bee-eater, Côa Valley
  • Visits to Portugal's successful 'rewilding' areas 
  • Golden, Booted, Bonelli’s & Short-toed Eagles
  • Evening visit to view Europe’s largest collection of Palaeolithic rock carvings, Côa Valley
  • Honey Buzzard, Marbled Newt & butterflies among the varied fauna
  • Led by expert naturalist guides
[introduction] => An 8-day holiday focusing on the birds, flora, other natural history and prehistoric rock art of north-eastern Portugal, based in the Côa Valley and Tejo International Natural Park. [edges] => Array ( ) [locations] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Portugal [description] =>

The far south-western corner of Europe offers much for the naturalist, yet Portugal is a country so often overlooked in favour of the larger landmass of neighbouring Spain.

Southern Portugal has a rich culture and history, reflected in the fine Moorish architecture, excellent cuisine and wines. The near medieval subsistence agriculture of the Alentejo valleys, where ploughing with mules is the norm, provides a rich contrast to the 20th century bustle of the Algarve coast!

Portugal’s northern and eastern extremities are usually neglected by overseas visitors who are more likely to be lured south to the sunshine and sandy beaches of the Algarve. On this 2-centre holiday we will enjoy the natural history of two little-known regions in the north-east of the country from two exquisite hotels. First, we will stay in the Côa Valley — near the magnificent Douro River — where we will enjoy the rich birdlife of the region’s open plains, stunning gorges and Cork Oak woodlands. Then we will move southward into the Tejo International Natural Park, a sparsely populated region of the country, home to an abundance of birds, plants and other wildlife.

We begin our holiday with a flight from London to Porto, from where we will drive east to Castelo Rodrigo, close to Portugal’s border with Spain, for a 4-night stay. This wonderful old hilltop village was once a walled medieval citadel central to the struggles between the kings of Portugal and those of neighbouring Castile, then Spain. Steeped in history, and with stunning views out across the plains to the nearby Spanish border and the wide Douro river valley, a walk around its narrow streets should also offer an interesting introduction to the local birdlife including Blue Rock Thrush, Rock Sparrow and Cirl Bunting, plus noisy flocks of Iberian Magpies. In the surrounding plains, we will look for Black-winged Kite, Montagu’s Harrier, Southern Grey Shrike, Hoopoe, Golden Oriole and Bee-eater, whilst at night we will listen and search for Scops Owls and Red-necked Nightjars. The greatest attraction of Castelo Rodrigo, some might say, is Casa da Cisterna, a small hotel of great charm and our base for the next four nights. This has been lovingly created by our hosts, biologists Ana and Antonio, from a cluster of the citadel’s old houses and the ancient cistern which supplied the citadel with water. 

From this exquisite base, we will be sure to visit the small reserve of Ermo das Águias, located roughly in the middle of the course of the Côa River and set within the ‘Rewilding Europe’ project in which Ana and Antonio are involved. Golden Eagle, Black Stork and Griffon Vulture soar over the region, all of which we hope to see during our time here. On one evening, we will visit the Côa Valley to see Europe’s largest collection of Palaeolithic rock engravings which date back to 22,000 BC. These are best viewed by torchlight after dark, when depictions of wild horses and aurochs — almost identical to the Garrano horses and Maronesa cattle that graze the surrounding countryside today — can best be appreciated.

For the second part of this holiday we will drive deep into the heart of rural eastern Portugal, to the Tejo International Natural Park. The border section of the Tagus River and the surrounding valleys is one of the most sparsely populated regions of Portugal and this wild and varied landscape will create a delightful backdrop as we search for the birds, flora and other wildlife that live here. Our base for the latter half of the tour will be in the small village of Termas de Monfortinho, where our hotel overlooks open countryside and the Erges River. En route to Monfortinho we will stop at the Toirões Bog. This small wetland has been created on the site of an old disused mine and now offers refuge to a wonderful variety of wildlife including Otter, Black Stork, Purple Heron and breeding Marsh Harriers.

We now have two full days to explore the canyons, rocky hills and fertile valleys of the Tejo International Natural Park. Large tracts of Cork Oak and Holm Oak woodlands clothe the hillsides here, mixed in with olive groves and swathes of Gum Rockrose (Cistus ladanifer), the latter filling the air with its heady scent. There is an interesting variety of birdlife to look out for, including Blue Rock Thrush, Woodchat Shrike, Serin and Bee-eater, plus Spanish Imperial Eagle, Bonelli's Eagle and Honey Buzzard soaring overhead. We will also cross the border into Spain — via the 2,000-year-old Roman bridge in Segura — and drive to the nearby town of Alcántara. Here, we can take a walk through Alcántara's historic centre and along its cobbled streets to the old monastery, now occupied by bill-clattering White Storks and a colony of Lesser Kestrels.

After a week enjoying these two little-known, yet highly rewarding, regions — and the birds, butterflies, flora and history they offer — it will be hard to leave!

The hotel has been lovingly created by biologists Ana and Antonio, both of whom are heavily involved with the re-wildling at the nearby Faia Brava reserve, and have an incredible knowledge of the wildlife and habitat to be found there. Ana has permission to take guests out after dark to enjoy a private night time tour to see the famous rock engravings. The hotel itself has been created from a cluster of the citadel’s old houses and the ancient cistern which supplied the citadel with water. Today, the latter has been converted into a small swimming pool that sits within the hotel terrace and, like many of the rooms, enjoys spectacular views over the village and surrounding countryside. Rooms are very comfortable and tastefully decorated in a traditional style with modern flair.

Summary

Portugal’s northern and eastern extremities are usually neglected by overseas visitors who are more likely to be lured south to the sunshine and sandy beaches of the Algarve. On this 2-centre holiday we will enjoy the natural history of two little-known regions in the north-east of the country from two exquisite hotels. First, we will stay in the Côa Valley — near the magnificent Douro River — where we will enjoy the rich birdlife of the region’s open plains, stunning gorges and Cork Oak woodlands. Then we will move southward into the Tejo International Natural Park, a sparsely populated region of the country, home to an abundance of birds, plants and other wildlife.

We begin our holiday with a flight from London to Porto, from where we will drive east to Castelo Rodrigo, close to Portugal’s border with Spain, for a 4-night stay. This wonderful old hilltop village was once a walled medieval citadel central to the struggles between the kings of Portugal and those of neighbouring Castile, then Spain. Steeped in history, and with stunning views out across the plains to the nearby Spanish border and the wide Douro river valley, a walk around its narrow streets should also offer an interesting introduction to the local birdlife including Blue Rock Thrush, Rock Sparrow and Cirl Bunting, plus noisy flocks of Iberian Magpies. In the surrounding plains, we will look for Black-winged Kite, Montagu’s Harrier, Southern Grey Shrike, Hoopoe, Golden Oriole and Bee-eater, whilst at night we will listen and search for Scops Owls and Red-necked Nightjars. The greatest attraction of Castelo Rodrigo, some might say, is Casa da Cisterna, a small hotel of great charm and our base for the next four nights. This has been lovingly created by our hosts, biologists Ana and Antonio, from a cluster of the citadel’s old houses and the ancient cistern which supplied the citadel with water. 

From this exquisite base, we will be sure to visit the small reserve of Ermo das Águias, located roughly in the middle of the course of the Côa River and set within the ‘Rewilding Europe’ project in which Ana and Antonio are involved. Golden Eagle, Black Stork and Griffon Vulture soar over the region, all of which we hope to see during our time here. On one evening, we will visit the Côa Valley to see Europe’s largest collection of Palaeolithic rock engravings which date back to 22,000 BC. These are best viewed by torchlight after dark, when depictions of wild horses and aurochs — almost identical to the Garrano horses and Maronesa cattle that graze the surrounding countryside today — can best be appreciated.

For the second part of this holiday we will drive deep into the heart of rural eastern Portugal, to the Tejo International Natural Park. The border section of the Tagus River and the surrounding valleys is one of the most sparsely populated regions of Portugal and this wild and varied landscape will create a delightful backdrop as we search for the birds, flora and other wildlife that live here. Our base for the latter half of the tour will be in the small village of Termas de Monfortinho, where our hotel overlooks open countryside and the Erges River. En route to Monfortinho we will stop at the Toirões Bog. This small wetland has been created on the site of an old disused mine and now offers refuge to a wonderful variety of wildlife including Otter, Black Stork, Purple Heron and breeding Marsh Harriers.

We now have two full days to explore the canyons, rocky hills and fertile valleys of the Tejo International Natural Park. Large tracts of Cork Oak and Holm Oak woodlands clothe the hillsides here, mixed in with olive groves and swathes of Gum Rockrose (Cistus ladanifer), the latter filling the air with its heady scent. There is an interesting variety of birdlife to look out for, including Blue Rock Thrush, Woodchat Shrike, Serin and Bee-eater, plus Spanish Imperial Eagle, Bonelli's Eagle and Honey Buzzard soaring overhead. We will also cross the border into Spain — via the 2,000-year-old Roman bridge in Segura — and drive to the nearby town of Alcántara. Here, we can take a walk through Alcántara's historic centre and along its cobbled streets to the old monastery, now occupied by bill-clattering White Storks and a colony of Lesser Kestrels.

After a week enjoying these two little-known, yet highly rewarding, regions — and the birds, butterflies, flora and history they offer — it will be hard to leave!
