WildCôa is another resilience business, created at the end of 2019, even on top of the outbreak of the pandemic and the restrictions that we came to know later and that lasted more than a year. Paulo Martinho is the mentor of this project, which has been growing slowly and sustainably and WildCôa is a member of the Wild Côa Network, an initiative promoted by Rewilding Portugal. As its name indicates, WildCôa offers you a personalized and differentiated way of getting to know the wildest side of Portugal in the Greater Côa Valley, through the knowledge of Paulo Martinho as a guide, who has actually been working on his training in the area of nature and tourism with Rewilding Europe.

WildCôa’s objective is clear, noble and urgent: to boost nature tourism in the Côa Valley, valuing and making known all its enormous historical, human and natural heritage and potential. With extensive knowledge of the region and its elements and constituents, this important member of our network wants to show you the best that this region has, especially in terms of fauna, flora and wonderful landscapes that are both unknown to foreign tourists, as well as for nationals, mainly those from large urban centers. It’s literally a whole new world waiting for you with so much to discover. Paulo Martinho has brought some influencers to know the area through his project and the feedback has been very positive.

There are many experiences at your disposal that allow you to be in direct contact with nature and with that feeling of lightness and freedom: wildlife photography in shelters, birdwatching expeditions, safaris in all-round vehicles -land etc. A journey that takes you through more than thirty thousand years in history and transports you to prehistory, making its way to the present and not forgetting the historic villages that the region has to visit, know and especially feel the pulse of this unique and special identity, as WildCôa maintains a very strong connection with local communities and their knowledge and traditions, always transmitting them to the customers it brings to the territory.

2021 was the great launching pad for this project and, in the next year, especially during the strong season of Spring/Summer, this enterprise counts on your confidence to take you on a unique and memorable experience. Are you ready to embark on this adventure?
