As an eminently natural park, Parque do Souto is a space dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of green landscapes. It is characterized by the presence of abundant vegetation, with diverse arboreal and shrub species that compose a rich and welcoming scenery. The name "Souto" suggests the presence of a grove or wood, sometimes associated with chestnut trees, which points to a consolidated forest offering shade and coolness, especially during the warmer months. This green lung serves as an important space for local biodiversity, providing direct contact with the region's flora.
Parque do Souto invites tranquility and outdoor leisure. It is an ideal place for a relaxed stroll, where one can appreciate the calm of nature and the chirping of birds. Its paths and green areas are conducive to moments of relaxation and simple activities such as reading a book, having a picnic, or simply contemplating the landscape.
