More than a walking holiday, a chance to discover the magic and charm of the real Portugal.
Bed & Breakfast, is also available (at Casa Vale Louro).
The meadows are abundant with stunning flora and you can catch the scent of the wild herbs in the grasses.
In Central Portugal there are interesting and fascinating animals, such as the marten, genet, wild boar, wolf and lynx and in the brooks you can find the strange looking fire salmander
(although all very elusive).
Bird life is rich in the area and in the higher moorlands you will find goshawk, eagles and kites. While in the lower regions; harriers, hoopoe, great spotted cuckoos, and woodpeckers can be seen.
