Xistocamping is located on a small peninsula surrounded by the meandering waters of the river Zêzere, next to Janeiro de Baixo, a picturesque Aldeia do Xisto, where memory lives on in the houses of yellow schist, in the mill excavated in the rock or in the "Tronco", the where animals were formerly shoed. 
Everything here is clear water, tucked between millennial gorges and deep valleys of dense vegetation that conceals pedestrian paths and points of geological interest integrated in the Naturtejo Geopark. If you opt to camp, you have all everything needed for outdoor living: picnic tables, drinking fountains and barbecues. If you prefer glamping, there are 4 bungalows to choose from, each with a double bedroom, bathroom and fully equipped kitchen.

The wooden houses blend with the surrounding landscape facing the River Beach, where the X Bar is located, an ideal place for a snack and to listen to the sound of water as a backdrop.
