From rocky outcrops and open moorlands to forested valleys and swift mountain streams, where this special place fosters endemic flora and fauna found nowhere else in the country. <\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">On this tour you\u2019ll have the chance to spot a remarkable variety of birds all within a single region. Among roughly 100 resident species, you may encounter raptors such as the Montagu&#8217;s Harrier, Short-toed Snake Eagle and Booted Eagle, agile mountain dwellers like the Rock Thrush and Northern Wheatear, or cliff-hugging flocks of Red-billed Chough. As well as many other warblers, pipits and forest birds common to this highland realm.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1308\" data-end=\"1747\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">The experience is thoughtfully organised: you\u2019ll be accompanied by a specialized guide, provided with local transport, and you\u2019ll traverse part on foot and part by vehicle, making it accessible even if you\u2019re not an avid hiker. A half-day or full-day option is available, and (if you wish) the tour can include a picnic, letting you enjoy the mountain scenery at leisure.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1749\" data-end=\"2054\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Whether you\u2019re a passionate birder or simply someone who appreciates nature at its most dramatic, this guided journey through Serra da Estrela offers a rare opportunity to connect with Portugal\u2019s wild heart, where altitude, solitude and biodiversity come together in a single, unforgettable experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;35px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Estrela Mountain Natural Park<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Located in the centre of Portugal, Estrela Mountain reaches an altitude of almost 2000 metres, making it the highest mountain in mainland Portugal. With its imposing and spectacular rocky landscape, it is deeply scarred by the glaciers of the past. It also harbours specific mountain habitats as well as countless endemic species of plants and animals, some of which do not exist anywhere else in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">This mountain range has important natural values. Due to its altitude, the geographical isolation has allowed certain species of animals and plants to evolve here separately from other populations, thus creating distinct species specific to this territory.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6965&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;265&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow_3d&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7125&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;265&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow_3d&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6943&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;265&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow_3d&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Birds from Estrela Mountain<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Of the group of birds that exist and that we can observe in Estrela Mountain Natural Park, some of them find this mountain their favourite national habitat.
