Melgaço is located in the far north of Portugal, right on the border with Spain. Nestled among the mountains and valleys of the Alto Minho Natural Park, it offers the perfect setting for an exciting quad excursion in northern Portugal. The town is also ideally located, just about 1 hour from Valença do Minho and 1.5 hours from Viana do Castelo and Braga.
During this quad adventure in Melgaço, your professional guide will lead you through the town and along the Minho River. No previous experience is necessary—simply follow the instructions and ride behind your guide along the dirt tracks and asphalt roads of the region.
The activity begins with a safety briefing and equipment handover. You’ll then set off on a 2-hour ride to explore some of the region’s highlights, including the Observatório, Mosteiro de Fiães, Melgaço’s historic town centre, and the Centro de Estágios de Melgaço. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty, as the ride may get bumpy and a little muddy!
