Quinta Nova’s Vineyard Walking Trail – Discovering the grape varieties, the Wines and the Region

We have been proving that we favor sustainability and are committed to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda. Within this context, we recently created a Walking Trail through Quinta Nova’s vineyard, meeting Goal 3 - Quality Health - toencourage our guests to engage in outdoor physical activity, and at the sametime respond to an increasing demand for this kind of activity.

This trail joins the range ofsuggestions that we develop and propose to tourists during their stay in the context of wine tourism. It is a walk through the vineyard located right next to the accommodation, with an extension of about 2200 meters.

You can enjoy the unique beauty of our landscape, while we reveal some of the secrets of the Douro Demarcated Region.But how do we do it?  We go with you, butnot physically. Especially because this is your moment, or to share with whomeveris with you.

The vineyard trail is organized through QR codes strategically positioned in places of interest and with the relevant information we want to convey at each point. This information isavailable through audio, in the 2 main languages, completed by images and short explanatory texts present in a leaflet that you will take with you.


Therefore, physical activity is combined with knowledge, as we intend to share the best of the Demarcated Region, presenting grape varieties, describing the characteristics of its sub-regions, soils, climate and the relationship of all these factors with viticulture.


What do you think? But better than talking about this trail, is actually doing it. Protect yourself from the sun, take a straw hat and a bottle of water with you.

You may also be interested in taking a break from the walk and enjoying a delicious picnic, while enjoying the imposing landscape of the Douro (optional). You will find a very pleasant place in the middle of the trail, with shade and properly prepared for this additional activity.

At the end, we challenge you to do a winetasting session with us, as we believe you will be even more connected with the region and will further appreciate the aromas and flavors of our D'ouro nectars.

But that's not all! Know that bydoing this walking trail through Quinta Nova’s vineyard, you will also be contributing to the Associação Penaguião em Movimento, because the cost charged, reverts in full to the association, which aims at the integration of the municipality’s population, as well as promoting the improvement of the living conditions of those in need.

Challenge yourself, breathe freshair, walk and learn more about the Demarcated Region, enjoy this tranquility and unique beauty, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

From Casal dosCapelinhos to you!
