Ol\u00e1, sou Freya van Dien<\/strong> the guide of the Caminho do D\u00e3o.<\/p>\n

Walking is one of my passions in life and the desire to walk has grown with the years. For me it fulfills a need to explore the world and connect with nature and I benefit greatly from the way it refreshes and balances my body and soul. I believe in the power of walking as a way to connect with and be at peace in the world and in ourselves.<\/p>\n

As Henry David Thoreau<\/a> said:\u201cwhen I walk I receive pure presence by the ton\u201d.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As a guide my goal is to facilitate a sense of connection with nature and culture in the D\u00e3o valley while walking mindfully. In my role as a guide I like to describe myself as: i<\/strong>n t<\/em>une with nature and in touch with local culture and history. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Familiar with the D\u00e3o region since 1989.<\/h3>\n
\n\t

When I walked the Caminho do D\u00e3o for the first time in 2019 it was 30 years ago (1989) that I first set foot in the D\u00e3o valley and the Beira Alta region. 1989 was the year my adventurous mother bought an old millers farm on the banks of the D\u00e3o river, named it Moinhos do D\u00e3o<\/a> and started building an eco-tourism business. In 2013 my husband Steven and I took over the business and came to live in the D\u00e3o valley.<\/p>\n

Ever since I moved here I have imagined how wonderful it would be to walk the entire length of the D\u00e3o valley. In the spring of 2019 this idea became a reality and, together with my dear friend Nadine we walked the 100km length of the river valley. The experience exceeded all expectations and made me decide to start offering the Caminho do D\u00e3o as a hiking tour.<\/p>\n

I am excited to get more people to walk the D\u00e3o valley, local people as well as from abroad, and share in the beautiful simplicity of the act of walking.
