Portugal, Explore The Northern Rivers
Northern Portugal is a very rural, unspoilt area and little known to paddlers. In 2003 Beyond Adventure, in conjunction with our North American partners, Sunrise International, pioneered possibly the first open canoe trip to that area. We are now able to open up the opportunity to paddle and camp in this wonderful country.
