Detailed description

The Sierra de Sintra Nature Park is one of Portugal's 13 nature parks. It was not until 1994 that the Portuguese government designated it as a nature park, and since 1981 it has also been a nature reserve. Its area is about 145 km² and includes the Serra de Sintra mountain range. It stretches to the coast and Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe. The Sintra-Cascais Nature Park is about 25 km from Lisbon and its many different historical and natural sights and attractions are also ideal for exploring on foot.

Really good ways

No other traffic disturbed. The selected hiking trails through the nature park are ideal to walk. The Travesseiro de Sintra tasting was a special highlight.

Wirklich gute Wege

Kein anderer Verkehr störte. Die ausgesuchten Wanderwegen durch den Naturpark sind ideal zu laufen. Die Travesseiro de Sintra Verkostung war ein besonderes Highlight.

Also easy to manage for the untrained

I'm not that much of a hiking fan. But you don't look behind the gills of a given perch. Unfortunately no German-speaking hiking tour.

Auch für Untrainierte gut zu schaffen

Ich bin nicht so ein absoluter Wanderfan. Doch einem geschenktem Barsch schaut man nicht hinter die Kiemen. Leider keine deutschsprachige Wanderführung.

World Heritage Site and rightly so ...

The Sitra Forest with its rich flora and fauna is an area protected by UNESCO. On the ridges we had an indescribable view of wonderful landscapes.

Zu Recht Weltkulturerbe…

Der Sitra Wald mit der reichhaltigen Tier- und Pflanzenwelt ist ein von der UNESCO geschütztes Gebiet. Auf den Höhengraten hatten wir einen unbeschreiblichen Blick über herrliche Landschaften.
