Overall, this holiday was an absolute delight to undertake. Sufficiently challenging to keep us on our toes but deeply satisfying to complete. Pousada Mosteiro de Amares was an absolute treasure of a hotel; we loved its simplistic decorations, furnishings and ambience. The staff here were particularly good. The two-day Braga 'add-on' was excellent, too, and a very pleasant way to end the walking holiday. Well done Inntravel; this was such a lovely holiday, which 'ticked the box' for us on all levels.
The walk was beautiful, peacefu and real treat on all of the senses.
The scenery, people and food amazing.
The walks were challenging but the views were the reward.
A real highlight for us was staying in the village house in Soajo under the care of the incredible Rosa.
We stayed in the very old and incredible Casa do Eiro and felt very privileged to do so.
We added the two nights in Braga and were glad we did.
A great city with a church on every corner and Bom Jesus not to be missed.
High Paths of Northern Portugal followed by Braga
Another excellent Inntravel holiday which we thoroughly recommend to those fit enough to rise to the challenges. In common with others, we particularly enjoyed Soajo and the walk to Peneda.
If you have a late outward flight on the Braga extension, this in combination with the early arrival will probably take care of most of Braga and enable you to make the bus trip to medieval Guimarães on your full day. Well worth the effort.

Another enjoyable holiday. High Paths was strenous in the heat, particularly the tarmac ascents. Our favorite walk was into Geres, especially reaching the plateau with just stunning rock formations. But beware of the horseflies! If you don't like crowds stay at the Infante Sangres in Porto - lovely room,wonderful elevator and staircase, and best breakfast of the holiday--real yogurt, figs, Serra da Estrada cheese, meat pastries, as well the usual spread. If you have time, do walk the ecovia in Arco de Valdeves. Just lovely and a nice easy start before the tough level 3s over the next three days.
The cafe bar at the foot of the Indiana Jones staircase in Peneda is very welcoming. Refresh yourself before climbing those stairs! And take a look at the contents of the small red chapels lining the staircase.
Douro Valley - magnificent scenery. More trash on the hikes than we expected. We fell in love with Braga and enjoyed it much more than Porto. Beautiful, clean, welcoming. And great fun!
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined High Paths of Northern Portugal, Valley of Gold, Porto city add on and Braga city add on.
A delightful holiday in an interesting and little-known corner of an interesting country. The walking was a little tough and the weather is unpredictable, but the scenery went from charming in the valleys to really lovely in the mountains. The hospitality at all stops was impeccable but the food offered can tend to slightly predictable and a bit heavy. Braga is worth a night or two and Porto at least three - it is an utterly beautiful city, albeit a busy one.
Full marks to Inntravel for offering a holiday in this area which is little known and visited by overseas travellers. This is not a trip we could have devised on our own. The walking routes were delightful and well considered through contrasting terrain and on a wide variety of paths. All arrangements worked seemlessly and evening restaurant recommendations were excellent. We travelled in late September and enjoyed seeing carpets of autumn crocus and the early colours of autumn in mixed deciduous woodland. Our Braga extension was an excellent contrast - and recommended for those interested in understanding the historic and cultural influences on the area.
