In the heart of the Côa Valley, Faia Brava is a wildlife sanctuary where griffon vultures, eagles, and black storks soar through the skies. Between imposing cliffs and the largest cork oak forest in the region, this 600-hectare protected area preserves rare habitats, ancient trails, and local traditions. Managed by the ATN, it invites you to discover nature through guided tours that reveal one of Guarda's most authentic and vibrant corners.
