Camping Del Molino de Rodizio

When you’re keen to stay active on your holiday, you can have riding lessons or go out on treks from the local equestrian centre (five minutes’ drive), go swimming in the open-air pool at Freamunde or play a round at Aqueduct Golf Course. There are also lots of hiking or cycling options on the trails through the Serra da Ermida meadows and woodland. All of these are within a 20-minute drive. There’s plenty of family fun to be had between the waterslides and splash fountains at Piscinas Scorpio, or you can tire youngsters out on the playground at Circuito de manutenção de S. João - Codessos (both half an hour) – where there are shaded walks through the cork forest and lots of picnic spots. More high-octane pursuits needed? Petrol-heads can follow trails of varying skill levels at Voltas de Rodas - Complexo Desportivo (five minutes), while hardcore mountain bikers test their abilities on steep slopes at Pista de Downhill Sousela (10 minutes).
