Avis, Portugal
Discover Avis: Luxury, Beauty, and Rowing Perfection Await!
Camp Avis
It’s difficult to describe just how beautiful the area of Avis is, other than complete perfection. Our camps are based out of the spacious, comforting and state-of-the-art Herdade de Cortesia, a hotel designed by a rower for rowers. The Herdade de Cortesia is luxurious in every way; each room is spacious, beautifully presented, and overlooks rolling farmland viewed through wall-to-wall glass doors.
From the Hotel to the lake, you will walk past one of 2 landmarks; an infinity swimming pool (tempting!) and an ultra-modern gymnasium. Our options are endless at GL Camps; covering everything from learning the basics to working hard. We encourage input and in return we offer direction. Evenings are set for workshops on nutrition, recovery, yoga movements and stretching; equipping your body through camp and beyond.
