The "Portas do Corno de Bico" Urban Park is situated at one of the main entrances to the town of Paredes de Coura, integrated into the area that gives it its name. This strategic position allows for easy access to the park, naturally integrating it into the town's urban landscape and serving as a transition point between the built environment and the surrounding nature.
This park is a true natural refuge and an important stronghold of biodiversity in the Paredes de Coura region. Visitors have the opportunity to explore a rich and varied flora, which contributes to creating a cool and leafy environment. One of the most notable aspects is the presence of ten different species of the Quercus genus, some of which are native to the area, while others have adapted to the Portuguese climate. This arboreal diversity offers an interesting perspective on the local plant richness.
Dedicated to leisure and strolling, the park offers routes that invite discovery and physical activity. The well-defined paths allow for moments of tranquility or outdoor exercise through its fitness circuits. This environment encourages the appreciation of nature and provides an ideal setting for enjoying quality time, whether walking, relaxing, or observing the green surroundings.
