Nature and surroundings

Serra da Estrela Natural Park is an exceptional place. It expands over 101 thousand hectares distributed across six municipalities and it was the first natural park to be created in Portugal, also holding the record for the largest protected area in the country. Here, you will find the highest spot in continental Portugal, the only ski course in the country, the spring of two important rivers and an unexpected “alpine type” landscape abounding in glaciation traces. But the greatness of Serra da Estrela Natural Park is not only measured in hectares. It is a true dynamic centre which also includes local heritage conservation and the revitalization of its land and people. It constantly cooperates with local authorities and official bodies in order to restart typical local activities, promote grazing and handmade cheese manufacture or by supporting apiarists or protecting the Serra da Estrela dog.
