Manteigas

Highlight • Settlement

It is considered the "capital of Serra da Estrela" and a privileged starting point to explore the Serra da Estrela Natural Park.

Manteigas is famous for its wool textile industry, especially for the production of fabrics and blankets. Manteigas is also known for its natural beauty, with glacial valleys (such as Zêzere), waterfalls and unique rock formations, including the famous Cântaro Magro.

Manteigas

Highlight • Settlement

In the heart of the Serra da Estrela, Manteigas is a mountain town that doesn't need grand monuments. Nestled above the Zêzere Glacier Valley, it enchants with grand landscapes, sparkling snowy winters, and soul-warming cuisine. Carved by Europe's southernmost glacier thousands of years ago, the surrounding mountains are the stage for endless adventures, legendary trails, and corners of pure tranquility.

Here, every turn reveals a new landscape, each season paints the town with different colors, and each visit leaves you feeling like you've truly entered the heart of the mountain.
