The Pipa Swing is located in the vicinity of the village of Barrancos, within the Guarda Fiscal neighborhood. Its position, strategically placed in a transition zone between the urban limit and the surrounding rural landscape, offers a privileged observation point. It is situated on the road leading to Ribeira da Murtega, allowing easy and direct access to the natural beauty of the surroundings.
This swing, known as the Pipa Swing, is more than just a playful element; it represents an invitation to contemplation and immersion in the landscape. Its wooden structure blends harmoniously into the natural environment, serving as a point of pause and rest. It was designed so that each movement allows a unique interaction with the vast horizon, providing a sense of freedom and connection with nature.
From the Pipa Swing, the gaze extends over a vast and serene Alentejo landscape. The panoramic view offered encompasses the region's characteristic horizon, with its open fields and typical vegetation painting a natural and tranquil picture. It is a place that invites appreciation of the quietness and beauty of the Alentejo, ideal for moments of reflection and for capturing the essence of the local landscape.
