国立公園エストレーラでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Next to the Nave de Santo António, the Covão do Ferro or Padre Alfredo dam, inaugurated in 1956, uses a glacial cirque and collects water from the Alforfa stream. It was commissioned by Father Alfredo to supply electricity to the wool industry in Unhais da Serra. Unhais da Serra can be seen in the background.

A beautiful hike through the valley (depending on your starting point, the ascent or descent will be more pronounced). Start as early as possible, while the sun is still behind the mountain range. Online tickets only (no payment on site). Take a screenshot of your ticket (QR code). This will be scanned when exiting or re-entering (if you want to go back). Bring plenty of water. The sun will come out around 10:00 a.m. (I hiked it in October). Parking is available right next to the upper starting point. The lower trailhead is about 500 meters away (coming from Chãos, turn left before the dam).

The Serra da Estrela Natural Park is something truly special. This 1,000-square-kilometer park, spread across six municipalities, was the first and currently the largest protected natural park in Portugal. It is home to the highest point on the Portuguese mainland, the country's only ski slope, the source of two important rivers, and a fascinating, alpine-like landscape formed by glaciers.

At exactly 1993 meters above sea level, Torre is the highest point in mainland Portugal, where the only ski resort is located. The landscape on the upper plateau of the Serra da Estrela is like a sprinkling of granite rocks over low scrub and patches of snow and ice, which the sun threatens to melt soon in the summer and which always returns the following winter. In winter, it sometimes becomes inaccessible.

I did it and I recommend it. A very pleasant route, with spectacular views. A suspension bridge creates some adrenaline for those less experienced in these walks.😂

Among the terraces, chestnut groves and pine forests, a rural heritage that is as authentic as it is surprising is hidden. Like this house, for example, which seems to have grown out of the rock itself: embedded in a huge boulder, in a perfect symbiosis between popular architecture and raw nature. It is as if it had been sculpted by the mountain.

Beautiful panoramic views from the highest point in Portugal. You can ski here in winter, and there is sometimes snow even in summer.
