Torre (Serra da Estrela Summit)

Highlight • Summit

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!

Climb on the EM513 — Municipality of Seia

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

A fantastic and very isolated climb from São Romão. At the time I passed, the road was closed to motorized vehicles due to works in the lower area, which ensured a climb with zero cars and total communion with nature.
