5 reviews of Serra da Estrela Natural Park

I visited the Serra da Estrela Natural...

I visited the Serra da Estrela Natural Park during Easter. It is considered the highest elevation of continental Portugal. It is 1993 meters above sea level and is located between the towns of Seia and Covilha.

At first it looked like there was not any snow but as we continued to go up the landscape changed to the point of seeing lots of snow and the fog that continued until the end. We went up to small store that was at the top, where they sold everything, including fur items like gloves, hats, etc. They also had coffee, so we had a delicious hot coffee and took some photographs. There were some cars parked there as it was impossible to keep going.

Serra da Estrela Natural Park

When I visited Guarda it was in the month of December, and one of the things that really surprised me was the thick fog that covered the entire city. This is because the city itself is in the middle of the Sierra de Estrella Natural Park. The Natural Park covers an area of ​​about 101,000 hectares, it is the largest protected area in Portugal. In it you can find differing landscapes, from the country's highest massif in Torre (1993 meters above sea level), the huge boulders of Càntaros, the Videmonte plateau or the Zęzere glacial valley. The Serra da Estrela Natural Park has some unique plant species to the country and has been declared a Biogenetic Reserve.
