Further inland
towards Spain, the peak of the Serra da Estrela range is
the highest point on mainland Portugal. Rising to 1,993
metres (6,539 ft), it is home to a modern ski resort
recently improved.
The region is notable
for its tasty cheese, which is still made by hand and
highly prized for its rich flavour, and high-quality
sheepskin goods.
