• Walking through the pine forest of Vale Santo you’ll got to Cabranosa, one of the best spots to watch migratory birds. Lost among sands, we’ll reach an area 6,000 years ago was a human settlement. Crossing Herdade do Vale Santo (Holy Valley property), with its houses that years ago welcomed pilgrims, we’ll follow straight to the west and to Telheiro beach, one of the most important Portuguese geological sites. Then return by the mythical road of Vale Santo, where silence and beautiful landscapes are kings.
