Aldeia histórica de Monsanto
Tourist attraction
👍👍 What an unique experience. Love it. From the start until end. Lovely views. A lot to explore. Friendly locals and few cafes we visited - expensive but delicious. They only accepted CASH. Many toilets around. Plenty places you can sit and relax.
See our pictures from walk. We visited on April 2022

Castle of Monsanto
Castle
👍👍 Great views towards Spain and over Monsanto also the dam in the distance. Carpark half way up with great view point, coaches park at the bottom and have a long walk up hill. The route up is cobblestone then becomes more rocky as you go up towards the castle. Great views from the top though. Well wor...

Helana
Restaurant
👍👍 The food was good, lots of variety and all tasty. Nice that the menu had English translation and that the staff understood English. Warning: the streets there are really narrow. I would recommend parking your car in the town centre and walk 10 minutes to the restaurant.

Casa da Velha Fonte unip lda
Restaurant
👍👍 The food is amazing! Owned by a family. They were extremely friendly and hospitable. We tried to find something to eat in Monsanto, but that was impossible. Everything closes from 3 to 7 pm. And that was the only open place around. The owner cooked a soup for our little baby who has an allergy. We w...

Ponte de Segura
Historical landmark
👍 Puente romano de Segura, hermano pequeño del de Alcántara. Se dice que el constructor fue el mismo, lo que ocurre es que el estado de conservación es muy diferente. Lo maravilloso es el paseo que hay desde Piedras Albas hasta el puente, perfectamente indicado y por una magnífica dehesa.

Taverna Lusitana
Tapas bar
👍👍 What a great experience they offer. The room was close to everything. Me and my partner parked the car at the upper parking and walked here. We packed everything in a small suitcase so that we won't have to worry about dragging heavy luggage. It was a steep, but very scenic 8 mins walk from the park...
