For fans of the great outdoors, consider looking for your EasyToBook.com hotel in Vieira do Minho. The town has the distinction of being the second most mountainous region in Portugal. About 20,000 people live in the town, and many of them work on the farms and fertile pasturelands that surround the town. Although farming is an old endeavor, the residents of Vieira do Minho have added a modern spin- hydroelectricity. A number of rivers and tributaries run through the land, and a series of four dams allow the residents to put the water to use in providing them with power.

In fact, it is these dams that actually draw a number of tourists to Vieira do Minho. The Canicada, Salamonde, and Venda Nova dams create areas of great natural, though human-influenced, beauty. If you want to see more, take a walk along the Cavado River to enjoy the landscape, some lovely bridges, and perhaps some up close interactions with livestock in the area.
