Peace and quiet in a beautiful setting

Although the Quinta is quiet, it is by no means isolated.

The vine-yards of the famous Dão wine are nearby.

The Ecopista do Dão

The Quinta borders the beautiful Ecopista do Dão, a 49 km biking and hiking path that leads all the way to the city of Viseu, a former railway, following the Dão river for miles. This river is very wide near Quinta da Abelenda, because it is part of the artificial Lake of Aguieira. More information about the Ecopista on our page:
