Location

Situated in the parish of Benavila and Valongo, in the municipality of Avis, district of Portalegre, the Benavila Swing is located at a high point that offers a privileged perspective over the surrounding landscape. The Alentejo reveals itself here in all its amplitude, with its fields stretching to the horizon, dotted with olive and cork trees that sketch the typical landscape of the region.

It is a place where rurality is genuinely felt, inviting immersion in the serenity of the montado. Its strategic position allows for an unobstructed view over the vast agricultural territory, characteristic of Alto Alentejo.

The Alentejo Scenery

From the Benavila Swing, the gaze is lost in the vastness of the plain, a natural canvas that changes color according to the season, from the vibrant green of spring to the intense golden hue of summer. The amplitude of the horizon, often framed by an intense blue sky or by vibrant tones at dusk, provides moments of great visual beauty.

This natural setting offers a unique observation point to appreciate the succession of seasons and the life that pulses in the fields, from agricultural activity to the sounds of nature. The unfolding landscape is a testament to the calm and generosity of the Alentejo land.

The Swing Experience

The simplicity of the swing's structure invites a moment of suspension, where one can feel the wind and observe the landscape in a unique way. It is an invitation to lightness and to rediscover the sensation of swinging, now with a backdrop of rare natural beauty.

This observation point serves as an invitation to pause, allowing visitors to disconnect from routine and absorb the tranquility of the rural Alentejo environment. It is an ideal space for creating lasting visual memories, marked by the natural beauty and quietude of the place.
