Route Summary
Natural park Serra da Estrela in Teixeira has pleasantly surprised us. Rugged mountains, alternately lush and bare, sometimes good roads, sometimes roads of a lesser quality. Highlights are the mountain peak of Torre at a height of 1993 meters, which is quite unusual for you to be able to get up with the bike. And then the descent to Glacier Valley. Perhaps the most beautiful part of the trip. Due to the lack of traffic (hours no oncoming traffic!) And the unfamiliarity this route gave even more feeling, an unreal beautiful ride!

RouteXpert Review
A dream ride with several highlights such as the Serra da Estrela, Torre and Glacier Valley. There is no better route in Portugal. In fact, and this is very personal, I like this route better than the famous Alpine passes. That is because it is very quiet, not in line to the top, not all coffee and cake in the same restaurant. And yet only 4 stars instead of the full 5 stars. That is because it is a connecting route, part of a journey. That is why there is also a motorway and the route is too long to be able to take some time to look at things. Advice is therefore to register or log in to MyRoute-app and customize this route to your own wishes.
