Malcata Eco Experience

The Malcata Eco Experience project originated in the valleys and peaks, the springs and waterways that make up the landscape of the Serra da Malcata Natural Reserve and its coastline. Based in Terras do Lince (Penamacor), Malcata Eco Experience emerges in the wake of slow tourism, awareness, and a biophilic relationship with ecosystems and biodiversity spaces. I invite you to let yourself be guided by the harmonious beauty, the vibrant color palette, and the luxuriant silence of Nature.
