Ecopista do Dão - A 49 km paved cycle path following the old rail road tracks from Santa Comba Dão to Viseu in central Portugal. Even if the area around it is mountainous, the cycle path itself has no big slopes and offers a relaxing cycling experience.

QUINTA DA PACHECA Nearly three hundred years old, Quinta da Pacheca is one of the Douro’s most renowned estates where worldwide awarded wines are produced. One of the first to bottle wine under its own brand, Quinta da Pacheca has always valued traditions, having one of the few 18th century’s remaining milestones, used in the original Pombal’s 1756 world’s first wine region demarcation. With 140 acres along and sloping down to the Douro River, the property is mentioned in an April 1738’s document as “Pacheca”, owned by Lady Mariana Pacheco Pereira. In 1903, by the hand of its new owner, the noble Jose Freire de Serpa Leitao Pimentel, the wine production significantly increased. The vineyards were then renewed and varieties were arranged by fields. The estate was again refurbished in 1916 and new warehouses were built. Eight imposing granite wine presses or “lagares” were then constructed and continue in use today, for the vinification Pacheca’s wines, under the advice of winemaker Maria Serpa Pimentel and agronomist Hugo Fonseca, for the vinification of Pacheca’s wines, for limited annual production of Douro DOC wines and special categories of Port Wines only. Maria do Ceu Goncalves and Paulo Pereira bought the estate in 2012, starting a new era of expansion and vitality.

You can't afford to miss it. Inside the Douro Valley region, you will find an opportunity to taste an excellent quality of wines from Douro, since Ports, Moscatel, reds and whites. Don't forget to taste the olive oil produced in the Quinta. Can you imagine sleeping in a wine barrel? You can do it there. Discover the magnificent restaurant. What a place!!! My favorite in the Douro Valley region.

Expect narrow and (sometimes) abrupt roads; don´t go on a hurry, km will last longer than you think, and make sure to have enough gas on the tank. Beautiful roads, and from the top, you have an amazing view, specially if the weather is clear. Try to visit some traditional villages - I would suggest Covas do Monte - it is like going back a century - very authentic and without tourists.

This a very different kind of mall. Features a full gym with olympic sized pool, arcade parlor, a massive kid's playground and a hidden ice bar if you dont know ut. Yes, a bar made of ice. Research it.
