Walk on the waters of the Minho
<p>Boat trip with wine tasting and local product in a traditional winery. The crystal clear and calm waters of the river Miño in spring as it passes through the Ribeira Sacra are tinged with the green of its banks, a monochrome landscape dotted with white cherry blossoms, in summer its multitude of tributaries put music to the silence and in autumn everything becomes multicolored with deciduous trees and vineyards before reaching the vegetative stop.In autumn, everything becomes multicolored with deciduous trees and vineyards before the vegetative stop announcing the winter. All blessed by the multitude of churches and wineries on the slopes of Padre Miño. To enjoy the best views we are located in the middle of the river where sometimes we have to stop before the passage of settlers such as otters, roe deer, squirrels, etc. Of course if we look at the sky we will see other companions such as eagles, kites etc.. Before so much forest and vineyards it is inevitable to go to the Ecosacra Winery at the foot of the river to taste the excellent wines and local products.</p>

Night tour of the Sober petroglyphs in Ribeira Sacra

We’ll begin the tour in the municipality of Sober just before sunset to explore petroglyphs: rocks bearing ancient engravings that transport us back to prehistoric times.<br><br>Although petroglyphs can be found throughout Galicia, in the Ribeira Sacra, Sober is one of the areas that holds the most of these prehistoric relics. On this tour of ancient engravings, you’ll join us in visiting unique locations, nestled amidst magical forests and hills, to discover hidden petroglyphs. Hidden and far from any light pollution, we’ll gaze at the sky just as those who carved these rocks once did. <br><br>With the help of specialized guides, you’ll understand the significance each rock holds within its surroundings and how its presence has endured to this day. Their symbols and shapes tell us of rituals and customs whose expressions were carved into the open-air rocks. And you’ll learn a little about the stars and planets that this magical place allows us to observe.</p>

The Holy Bath and the Sorrow of the Dead
<p>Hiking along the "secret route" of the Ribeira Sacra. An ancient path used by pilgrims and as a trade route before the construction of the Sil reservoirs takes us through a place full of legends: an anthropomorphic tomb with miraculous springs, the Pena dos Difuntos, on which hundreds of coffins rested on their way to the cemetery leaving their mark in the form of a cross carved on it, ancient terraces for the vines, stories of guerrillas, an abandoned village and a superhuman flora and landscape. A different glimpse of the always spectacular Ribeira Sacra. A different glimpse of the always spectacular Ribeira Sacra, a route of medium difficulty.</p>
