Aldeia de Montesinho

Montesinho is a typical small village lost in the Trás-os-Montes region (that literally means “Behind the Hills”), located on the slope of the astonishing Montesinho Mountain, in the heart of the Montesinho Natural Park, at about 1030 meters high.
This traditional small village has been progressively recuperated, mostly for its tourist advantage, preserving its heritage and traditions.
Montesinho is quite poor in agricultural resources, yet quite rich in cattle-breeding. The Montesinho mountain goat is one of the most famous products, created in the surrounding hills of the small village.
This region is also quite known for the rigorous winters and the rough summers.
