Melgaço is the northernmost municipality in Portugal, located in the district of Viana do Castelo, known for its wineries and vineyards. It stands at the border of the country with Spain and is surrounded by the length of the Minho River. This place has a long history, but it is mostly known for its Castles: the Castelo de Melgaço the first one built in the twelfth century and with an amazing view of the territory from its main tower, and the Castelo de Castro Laboreiro, an old medieval fortress that stands as a National Monument from past conflicts in the area. But the crown jewel of Melçaco is the Peneda-Geres National park, with a territory of over 400 square miles, where you can take a hike, a kayak ride and see why it is a protected area that makes the Portuguese proud. Melgaço is a big territory full of wonders to explore and this two-hour quad ride will give you a taste of all there is to see.

The vehicles you'll be riding in are equipped with all safety measures and the guides will make sure that the driver of each vehicle is over 18 years old and has a valid driving licence to ensure a safe ride under all mandatory conditions. They will also explain some rules of conduct, as you will pass through different protected areas in Melgaço in your quad, and will have to learn about certain good practices as you interact with them.

After that, you will have the opportunity to explore and ride through different terrains of incredible beauty, with the expert indications of your guide, so you will have the best time possible!
