I stayed in Arcade in a private one called O Lar de Pepa. Enjoyed the big covered veranda with sofas there - sipping tea there on a rainy day being inside and outside at the same time made my day. And the hospitaliero managed to get some eggs and onions for our meal that we fancied cooking on a spot. Arcade surprisingly reminded me of the lakes in the north if Italy, like Garda, or Como - small but nice riverfront with the hills at the back are perfect for a stroll. The bar just on the other side of the river served perfect thick hot chocolate with churros. Grand memories from this place! Bom Caminho!

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
