Cântaro Magro is one of the "commonplaces" of the Serra da Estrela mountain range, whose summit rises to 1928 m altitude, deserving a visit at any time of year. Viewed from west to east, its silhouette resembles a pitcher. In summer, its rocky face is interrupted by small terraces of soil, where some of the rarest botanical jewels of the mountain range grow. In winter, it is covered in snow and ice which, as they melt, form ephemeral waterfalls. These recall the overflowing liquid from the pitchers carried on the heads of women when, in the past, they went to the fountains. #CISE #VisitSeia #ParqueNaturaldaSerradaEstrela

Sabugueiro, the village vying for the title of highest in Portugal, is also one of the most authentic ambassadors of mountain life. Among granite houses and comforting flavors (cheese, sausages, roast kid, and honey), you can find the warmth of blankets and burel coats and the company of the faithful Serra da Estrela mountain dogs. Surrounding waterfalls, streams, and lakes remind you that here, nature is as generous as the table.

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.

In this pretty village immersed in the quiet of the surrounding nature you can stop for a regenerating break.

The waters of the Rio Mondego originate here and you can find a fountain where you can fill your water bottle with fresh water!

Cântaro Magro is one of the most iconic and spectacular rock formations in the Serra da Estrela, the highest mountain range in mainland Portugal. This imposing granite spire is the result of millions of years of glacial erosion and weathering. Its name, which means "Skinny Pitcher", perfectly describes its slender and elongated silhouette.
