Gouveia
Nestled into the western side of the Mondego Valley, this quiet town of parks and gardens is a popular base from which to explore the Serra da Estrela. A region of truly breathtaking natural beauty, the natural park covers approximately 1,011 square km (390 square miles) and is home to the highest mountain in the country, called the Torre.
