Hiking
This is the HP of mainland Portugal. The short way up is to drive up to the top, park up and walk 50m to the summit and then go and buy some good cheese and meats from the summit shops!

Hiking
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.
