We are a group of people who loves nature, animals and permaculture.
We are in the heart of Douro surronded by amazing views, nature.
One of our objectives is to allow nature to prosper, to practice a regenerative and biological agriculture, applying the principles and designs of Permaculture, to intervene as little as possible in the environment in an organic and non-harmful way to nature.

What else ...
Cinfães has unique conditions to provide its visitors with the best that exists in terms of nature. Place of confluence of the least polluted rivers in Europe, as well as an area of incredible pedestrian walks, gastronomy and a lot of tradition. From the mountains to the river, nature extends in a unique and virgin way, where you can spend unforgettable holidays.
The Serra de Montemuro, an area of excellence for cattle of the Arouquesa breed, is today one of the places with the greatest presence of rurality. The Bestança Valley and the Paiva River Valley, with unique beauties, also exhibit natural forms full of green meadows, streams and streams, as well as the truest samples of Iberian biodiversity - in an environment full of charms protected from invasion. For all that is associated with it, Cinfães is, as the poet says: the pleasant region where the Gods strive for favorsA little more information
