Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe
The path to Cromlech dos Almendres will be through a cork tree forest. Here we will stop for a while and understand the incredible agro-silvo-pastoral system that surrounds us. In addition to cork extraction, this form of agriculture has been part of the region's culture for centuries, an example of balance between human action and nature. Touch and explore these amazing cork trees, the cork oak.
