• Driving or walking through the nearby mountains, the Serra da Estrela, comprising a protected national park with the sources of the rivers Alva, Mondego and Zezere where you can swim, canoe and fish.

You may also make time for a visit to the colourful fairs, and to relaxing walks in the pine woods or along the large, dammed lake of Rio Mondego at Stª Comba Dão, where three rivers are joining, or to go to one of the several thermal baths in the area.

A visit to the winehouses in the Dão region, a daytrip to Coimbra, the oldest university city, and Viseu with its many ancient buildings are a few of the many possibilities.

The Beira Alta region is an area with many possibilities and curiosities.
