This activity is special for the unique experience of going down the Mondego River, the largest in Portugal, between the Carvoeira dam (Penacova) and Praia Fluvial dos Palheiros / Zorro (Coimbra), on a 12km route. It stands out as the biggest tourist attraction in the country, perfect for kayaking beginners. With stunning natural surroundings, full of vegetation and birds, it also offers small rapids in the summer for an exciting touch. At 1pm, a break for food on the riverbank, providing moments of relaxation and contact with nature. This combination of incredible landscapes, excitement and conviviality makes the experience truly special and memorable for all participants.
