The ''Parque Natural do Douro Internacional'' ({{langx|en|Douro International Nature Park}}), which encompasses the municipalities of [[Figueira de Castelo Rodrigo]], [[Freixo de Espada à Cinta]], Miranda do Douro and [[Mogadouro]], includes an area of {{convert|85150|ha|sqmi}}, along the border portion of the Douro River. It was created on 11 May 1998 to encompass the constituent territories that encompass the Rivers  Douro and Águeda, along the Spain-Portugal border that include similar geological and climatic conditions, and to help support flora and fauna in the region, while allowing appropriate human activities. The creation of the complementary ''Parque Natural de Arribes'' in Spain, allowed the systematic protection of an area that encompassed the larger ecosystem and biome.
