Located in Faquelo, in the locality of Arcos de Valdevez, Rio Vez Park stretches along the right bank of the Vez River. This green area integrates into the town's urban landscape, establishing a fluid connection between adjacent points of interest, such as the river beach and an area commonly used for events. Its position allows visitors to enjoy a natural environment immersed in the riverside landscape, while being easily accessible.
Rio Vez Park was conceived as a leisure and wellness area, designed for the enjoyment of all ages. It offers an inviting environment for outdoor activities, from a tranquil stroll to light sports. It is a place where nature meets daily life, providing a green refuge by the watercourse. The revitalization of this space sought to enhance its proximity to the river, creating areas that invite contact with the natural environment and socializing.
With a considerable extension, the park integrates various zones designed for leisure and discovery. Notable is the presence of pedestrian trails that are part of the Vez Ecovia, allowing visitors to explore part of the area amidst the vegetation and along the river, including walkways that offer a distinct perspective from the treetops. This multifunctional space was designed to host both daily socializing and outdoor cultural events, providing a platform for diverse activities that invigorate local life and offer entertainment.
