About This Route

Portugal's only National Park, located on the northern border with Spain. This route takes you through a landscape of ancient granite mountains, deep oak forests, and traditional stone villages like Lindoso. You'll drive along ancient Roman roads (Geira) and past emerald-green lagoons. WARNING: Significant elevation changes and narrow mountain roads with free-roaming wild horses and cattle. A raw, prehistoric-feeling mountain experience that shows a completely different side of Portugal.
