Pedras Salgadas Spa & Nature Park

For those with an unyielding ardor for the great outdoors, the Pedras Salgadas Spa & Nature Park unfurls a realm of wonder. Sprawling across a vast 20 hectares of spellbinding forest, the resort showcases a series of avant-garde eco-houses and treehouses, masterfully designed for nature aficionados.

Just an hour’s drive from Porto, in the historic spa town of Pedras Salgadas, the resort is a testament to Portugal’s natural bounty. Known for its therapeutic hot water springs, the locale becomes even more appealing with the resort’s commitment to luxurious accommodation, coupled with a top-tier spa experience and an array of recreational facilities.

A standout feature of the park is the treehouses, brought to life by the visionary architect Luís Rebelo de Andrade. Born from a desire to encapsulate the whimsy of treehouse living, the design deviates from conventional orthogonality. In collaboration with Modular System, a technology previously fine-tuned in prototypes was employed, resulting in lightweight, self-sustaining structures.

Decked in indigenous slate and wood, these treehouses are a masterclass in camouflage, subtly blending into the century-old park. Beyond their external allure, the interiors are equally mesmerizing. Two strategically placed windows offer guests dual experiences—one to gaze upon the park’s vibrant life and another directed heavenward to the vast expanse of stars. Each treehouse is equipped with a split bathroom, a functional kitchenette, a plush double bed, and a cozy sofa.

Sustainability is the beating heart of the project. From the use of non-impervious surfaces, advanced insulation techniques, and the repurposing of blackwater to the integration of ultra-efficient LED lighting systems, every detail underscores the resort’s commitment to the environment.
