ALMOST REACHING THE SKY – Serra da Estrela

Serra da Estrela is the highest point in mainland Portugal (1993m), where you can fully enjoy the snow. Here life is greatly influenced by the cold and snowy winters. Men learned how to survive and you can see it through the houses and the handmade warm cloaks and woolen garments. To reach the top one crosses the mountains in defined tracks that begin in Seia and Gouveia.
