Montanha Clube presents itself as a reference club in Portugal, in the organization of sporting events\/competitions.
\nIt is a non-profit club that was born in 1990 by Jo\u00e3o Bandeira, Jo\u00e3o Lopes and Pedro Barradas, all of them with a passion for off-road motorcycles.
\nDesde logo, este Clube ficou marcado pelo lan\u00e7amento de inovadores eventos, onde a preocupa\u00e7\u00e3o era de proporcionar aos atletas emo\u00e7\u00f5es diferentes e colocar a adrenalina ao m\u00e1ximo.
\nAfter more than two decades, and a huge evolution in nature sports, even with the emergence of new modalities, the club continues to make a difference and carry out innovative and even unprecedented challenges in the world.
\nWith Serra da Lous\u00e3 as \u201cour sports facility\u201d, Montanha Clube promotes a varied set of emotions for everyone who participates in its activities. Associated with the sporting emotions typical of the activities it develops, whether in terms of competition or leisure, Montanha Clube over time, has demonstrated a concern for boosting tourism in the territory where it operates.
\nIn recent years, Montanha Clube has brought thousands of people to Lous\u00e3, including athletes, companions and the media, who have enjoyed Vila da Lous\u00e3, thus also getting to know the customs, traditions and gastronomy of the people of Lous\u00e3, contributing in a very significant way for local tourism.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

In terms of the physical bases of the territory and when someone refers to the Municipality of Lous\u00e3, an idea that stands out immediately is the fact that it is a mountainous sector with great natural wealth.
\nThis highlights the fact that the main physical features of the Municipality reflect, in an almost direct way, the major structural lines that have long defined the morphology of its territory, and that have influenced human occupation in the region, throughout the centuries. Tourism strongly contributes to the development of the Municipality with a strong flow of visitors, whether considering the Serra da Lous\u00e3 and the Schist Villages, or the rich and varied existing historical\/built and natural heritage.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
