Best places: Parks in Colares, Portugal

Protected mountainside that slopes into the sea & is home to many species of rare flowers & animals.

Ornate 19th-century mansion with Moorish, Gothic & Indian influences, set in botanical gardens.

👍👍 For sure one of the best spots in Lisbon and the closer area to watch the SUNRISE. Beautiful location on the top of the mountain. Right next to a small church. Very quiet. In the middle of nature. And you have a full 270° view. There’s no cafés or anything up here. So make sure to bring some tea or...

👍👍 A gorgeous and well-maintained trail that burrows deep into the Cascais-Sintra municipality. You can hike or bike for hours while taking in constantly changing views and vistas.

👍👍 If you like adventure and hiking, this is the perfect place! The zip line had been on my bucket list for a long time and I finally did it! The place is a nature reserve, and it is possible to do activities in the park for both adults and children in complete safety. There you will find young and c...

👍👍 the parks of the pena palace is so much more worth than the castle itself. save half the price of the ticket (park only 7.5 € instead of 14 € combined, 2018), and you can still visit the courtyards and terraces of the palace (you only miss the inside rooms) and have the views without the 30-60 min q...

It is really stunning with many beautiful things to see and in general it is so relaxing to walk around this beautiful nature. We ended up spending approximately 4 hours on th...

😐 Um bom espaço para encontros ao ar livre. Tem estacionamento, mesas de piquenique para vários grupos, com sombra, e espaço para as crianças brincarem, com baloiços. Tem também uma área de relvado com máquinas de exercício físico. Só falta uma casa de banho mas, a mais ou menos 500m, fica uma associa...

😐 Bom campo

👍👍 This park is just equipped with everything you can wish for, a place for relaxing, playground, working water taps and a clean, maintained toilet. From a caper's perspective this park alone provided all the hygiene you could need for a two day stay in Sintra.

🫤 Tem tudo para ser um local magnífico. No entanto por descuido do município e por falta de civismo de que lá vai, é um local sem encanto. Lixo e mais lixo nas bermas da lagoa. Nos caminhos envolventes lixo e mais lixo. É uma pena que assim estas tal local.
