Camping

  • In the Peneda-Gerês National Park
  • Over 20 years' experience providing camping holidays
  • On-site restaurant, free hot showers and free wifi
If you're a nature and/or outdoor activities sort, you'll likely want a Portuguese pitch in Peneda-Gerês, the country's only national park. And if you think you're highly likely to be a mountainous type, you'll likely want your Portuguese pitch to be at Parque Cerdeira – once again we exhort y'all to take a minute right now and look at the park pics. This is in lovely locale, set over seven hectares of wooded ground, with views so perfect over the Peneda-Gerês National Park that we feel we must pack up and go there immediately. It's clean, cosy and highly comely on site too – again, we exhort y'all to take a minute right now and look at the park pics... Parque Cerdeira has a restaurant serving traditional and affordable Portuguese food and a snack bar for those who'd prefer a quick bite on the terrace. There's also a small grocery shop, a play area, an outdoor pool and free wifi.

This peaceful, well-run campsite in beautiful Portuguese mountains offers a warm welcome and friendly, helpful staff.

Liked Reception was friendly and pleasant.

Showers and toilets were nicely designed and kept very clean at all times.

Store made an honourable effort for providing camping basics.

Disliked Maneuvering in a motorhome was tight in some places.

Restaurant menu was uninspired.

Some campers played music during the day.

My pitch in C2 backed against a maintenance center where it seemed that the workers fussed and argued with each other all day.

Assembly of morning hiking groups blocked roads with cars and groups standing in road for an extended period of time indifferent to the needs of others.

Martyn W.

FHU earth travel trailer campsite

Liked Fully serviced pitch easy access etc. Shaded spot under trees. Friendly English speaking reception. Good wi-fi.10 amp supply. Rural location. Very clean toilets and showers. Small shop on site with bread available if ordered the previous day.

Disliked Plots on the small size. We landed on a bank holiday weekend (in Portugal) and initially found the site full of noisy kiss. Quiet site once they left.

From the manager: Thank You Martyn for your visit and the kind words.

Great site in general and for bird lovers in particular.

Colin P.

Powered earth tent campsite

Liked Stayed 5nights camping. Liked the site as a whole, good pitch, very friendly staff from Reception, Bar/restaurant and the shop that sold the essentials and more. We ate in the Bar/Restaurant every evening of our stay and had good food and service on each occasion, though menu a bit limited. Showers and toilets looked fairly new and kept very clean. Good birdlife in the surrounding trees, with my wife being particularly keen on the Nightjars calling in the distance. Scenic walks and drives nearby.

Disliked We camped in May, the heating in the shower/toilet block was not on, so a bit cold.

Liked Trip to Braga

Disliked Most of it, only people there. Weather rained most of the time I know they can't do anything about that. The private toilet block was nice to have, but no heating on no soap to wash hands and no hand drying facilities. And it was not cleaned at all the 7 days we were there.

Local attractions

The Parque Nacional da Peneda-Gerês is, we say, simply spectacular, crammed with craggy landscapes, the Gerês mountains, dolmens and megalithic tombs, a preserved Roman road, and masses of flora and fauna including vast bush and shrublands, over 600 endangered plant species, and mammals such as wolves, wildcats, roe deer, wild boar and the teeny Pyrenean desman. Kayaking, hiking, orienteering, archery, cycling, mountain biking, horse riding and 4x4 excursions are all available in the surrounding area too and some can be booked at the Parque de Campismo da Cerdeira reception.

Nearest campgrounds

Unfortunately, we have no nearby bookable campgrounds.
