Event Description

Esta proposta de Caminhada tem inicio no centro da Vila de Montelavar, e segue em direção a um vale verdejante, onde corre serena a ribeira de Cabrela. Ao longo do nosso percurso muitos são os locais onde ouviremos o som da água a correr, passaremos por bosques onde apetece ficar apenas, ou fazer um pic-nic. Teremos ocasião para ficar a conhecer a Cascata de Armes e a Cascata da Bajouca ou da Fervença, locais de grande beleza, em especial depois de épocas chuvosas, onde as cascatas mostram toda a sua beleza e imponência. Teremos ainda tempo para ver uma antiga ponte romana e belíssimas paisagens rurais! Mais um evento a não perder!

Montelavar

Montelavar é uma povoação situada na zona norte do concelho de Sintra, sede da freguesia com o mesmo nome desde o século XVI por despacho patriarcal datado de 1538. A exploração, o corte, a cantaria e o trabalho artístico das rochas ornamentais, com particular destaque para o mármore, fizeram de Montelavar um dos grandes centros desta indústria, tanto no plano nacional como internacional. Paralelamente, cresceram em torno da indústria das rochas ornamentais outras indústrias a ela associadas, como a metalomecânica, as máquinas e ferramentas, a carpintaria industrial, etc.

Cascata de Armés

A Cascata de Armés, escondida por ruínas antigas, é um cenário surpreendente que pode ser apreciada em todo o seu esplendor, dependendo do caudal de água.

Cascata de Fervença

A Cascata de Fervença ou da Bajouca situa-se na localidade de Fervença, perto da Terrugem e é a maior do concelho de Sintra. Esta cascata é alimentada por um ribeiro de caudal razoável, proveniente da Granja do Marquês e precipita-se depois pela encosta abaixo em direcção à Ribeira da Cabrela, afluente do Rio Lizandro. Antigamente, este ribeiro drenava os pântanos que existiam na Quinta da Granja ou do Marquês, como também era denominada por ser propriedade do primeiro Marquês de Pombal.

Event details

Event Description

This activity proposal brings together two components in one day: walk, often by the river, starting in Escaroupim, passing through Valada do Ribatejo and Porto de Muge, and a boat trip on the River Tagus, with its mouchões, off the village of Palhota.

Escaroupim

About 7 kilometres from Salvaterra de Magos is the village of EscaroupimThis is an excellent option for a weekend, or just a Saturday or Sunday, to enjoy the calm and tranquillity if you want to get away from Lisbon, which is about 70 kilometres from the city on the N 118.

Escaroupim is a typical fishing village, formed in the mid-30s. Alves Redol called these families "river nomads" who, during the winter months, travelled from Vieira de Leiria to the River Tagus for the winter fishing campaigns, returning in the summer to their homeland to fish in the sea. Some of these fishermen stayed on the banks of the Tagus, forming small fishing villages along the river.

From an ornithological point of view, this place stands out for its heron colony, located in a mouchão on the Tagus.

Valada do Ribatejo

Valada is one of the eight parishes in the municipality of Cartaxo and one of the oldest. According to historians, the Romans were the first farmers in the Valada countryside, but it was during Arab rule that the first documents appeared referring to its rich, upland soil.

Valada's main wealth is agriculture, with its fields growing tomatoes, sunflowers, maize, wheat, melons and vines. From ancient times until a few years ago, shad fishing also played an important role in the economy of the inhabitants of this parish.

The parish's centrepiece is the River Tagus, with its beautiful surroundings, river beach, picnic area and campsite. It is a meeting place par excellence for visitors to the parish.

As a heritage site, Valada is proud of its church, which dates back to 1211, during the reign of Dom Afonso II. Having lost some of its beauty after the 1962 restoration, its patron saint is Nossa Senhora da Espectação do Ó.

Port of Muge

In Porto de Muge there is the Rainha Dona Amélia Bridge, a remarkable engineering feat, inaugurated on 14 January 1904 by His Majesty King Carlos I. This bridge, built for the railway, was decommissioned and is now adapted for road traffic.

Village of Palhota

Palhota is a typical fishing village, built with wooden houses on stilts, whose origins are lost in time. Alves Redol, a great Portuguese writer who wrote a lot about the Tagus and its people, once lived in this village.

Some of the points of interest on the walk

- Walk between the village of Escaroupim and Valada do Ribatejo - Pass by the Rainha D. Amélia bridge - Pass by Porto de Muge - Visit to Valada do Ribatejo - 1-hour boat trip and return to the meeting point (Escaroupim) - Mouchões do Tejo - Natural landscapes and banks of the Tagus river -

In this event we'll be walking on the Cesaredas Plateau, in the west, passing through the magnificent Cornaga Valley, where the Galvão River flows, with its bridges, watermill and waterfall in a beautiful natural setting, very close to Reguengo Grande. Another event not to be missed!

The Cesaredas Plateau

The Cesaredas Plateau, located in the western region of Portugal, dates back to the Middle and Upper Jurassic period (170 to 150 million years ago). Stretching over 49km through the municipalities of Lourinhã, Bombarral, Óbidos and Peniche, it varies in altitude between 130 and 170 metres. The Cesaredas Plateau, known for the presence of Caesar's troops in the region (Nery Delgado, 1867), contains fossils of ammonites, corals, bivalves and brachiopods and echinoderms and rare remains of vertebrates such as dinosaurs and crocodilomorphs. There are around 50 caves, grottoes and cavities on the plateau, such as Lapa da Feteira and Gruta dos Ralis, some of which have been identified as classified archaeological sites (Palaeolithic and Neolithic). The plateau supplies four river basins: Rio Grande, Rio de Atouguia, Rio Real and Ribeira de Benfeito, and is an important natural aquifer, responsible for recharging groundwater. The production of the reguengueira apple was an important economic activity, so much so that the name "reguengueira apple" was also given to this fruit, which came from Reguengo Grande.

The Cesaredas Plateau owes its name to the presence of an encampment of Caesar's troops in the area, as Nery Delgado wrote in 1867. Leite Vasconcelos also mentions the collection of a bronze xorna and a bronze arrowhead from Moledo and Moita dos Ferreiros. Along the route, we come across some of the territory's characteristic features, such as the lime kilns - an example of industrial architecture with the function of producing lime - the morouços, the result of the piling up of stones from clearing farmland, and the shepherds' shelters, ancient stone constructions.

The Cornaga Valley

The Cornaga Valley was once a vital area for the development of the parish of Reguengo Grande. The watermills, bridges, fountains and waterfall give charm to this place that was once very busy, not only for farmers, but also for washerwomen and all those who bathed in the water of the Galvão river

Event details

Event Description

This proposed walk starts at the Fort of St George of Oitiavos, runs along the Cascais coastline almost to Guincho Beach, passing Cabo Raso. The route also takes in the Cresmina Dunes (Interpretation Centre), its walkways and ends at the starting point. Another event not to be missed!

Shallow Cape

The Cabo Raso Lighthouse is located in the São Brás de Sanxete Fort and is a red, cylindrical metal tower, thirteen metres high. It has a lantern, balcony and ancillary buildings.

Cresmina Dunes

The Cresmina Dune Interpretation Centre is a space created with the aim of showcasing the unique fauna and flora associated with the Guincho-Cresmina dune system. The Centre serves as a starting point for moments of discovery, as the space leads visitors to explore the dunes of Guincho and their specific characteristics via a walkway.

The Guincho-Cresmina dunes are a small part of the Guincho-Oitavos complex located in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. This dune system is quite unique in that the sand from the Guincho and Cresmina beaches returns to the sea further south - between Oitavos and Guia, after migrating over the flat rocky platform of Cabo Raso. This is known as the Cresmina-Oitavos dune wind corridor.

Dune strands are fragile but very important geological structures, as they protect inland land from rising sea levels. As such, the Guincho-Cresmina dunes are an active and extremely unstable system due to the constant mobilisation of sandy particles by the strong northwest-southeast winds. The existence of impermeable barriers has narrowed the sand transport corridor, accelerating its dynamics. As wind speeds increased, sediment was deposited further away from the coastline with a consequent reduction in the beach area. Studies show that the Cresmina dune is advancing in a north-south direction, in some directions, by around 10 metres a year. These figures could have dramatic long-term effects in terms of the loss of arable land, infrastructure and housing.

Event Description

In this event we'll get to know Lisbon's 7 Hills, its streets, staircases, gardens, viewpoints, markets, lifts and churches such as the magnificent Igreja de São Roque. Come with us and discover the best of Lisbon. Don't miss out on this unique tour of Lisbon.

The 7 Hills of Lisbon

St George's Hillalso known as the Castle, is the highest hill in the Iberian Peninsula. seven (in reality, it's the hill of Graça, which is the highest hill in Lisbon, but as we've seen, it was forgotten by the author of this legend) and it's where the current Castelo de São Jorge is located and where the first settlement that gave rise to Lisbon is thought to have appeared, on this hill and below the Castelo there were traces of the Roman opidium (which is why it was the centre of the old municipality), it's known that the Arab alcázar was located there and that's where the castle from the time of the Reconquista was built, which still exists today. Its geographical area currently covers the neighbourhoods of Mouraria, Castelo and part of Alfama (southeast).

St Vincent's Hill where the present-day Alfama neighbourhood and the Convent of São Vicente de Fora are located.

Hill of St AnneThe monastery of the Dominican nuns of Nossa Senhora da Anunciada stood on the site where Largo da Anunciada now stands. It gave its name to the place and the street next to it in 1539, after the Augustinian friars gave it in exchange to the nuns, who moved to this spot from their original foundation on the Castle Coast, right on top of the same hill. This hill is located to the west of St George's Castle and has become a spur between the Ribeira de Valverde to the west and the Ribeira de Arroios to the east, which at their confluence delimited it to the south, roughly equivalent to the area currently defined by Rua de São José/Rua das Portas de Santo Antão, Rua da Palma/Largo do Martim Moniz and Praça da Figueira.

St Andrew's HillThe story goes that D. Afonso Henriques took advantage of the strategic qualities of the region and set up his troops here in 1147 to attack the city. With the earthquake of 1551, which sent many residents out of the old city, they chose the hills of Graça and Santo André because they were very high (in reality, the facts also refer to the hill of Graça, which is adjacent to this one), Thus, noble families settled in the area and bought farms where they built country houses. Later, these houses gave way to large palaces, mainly along the Graça and Santo André pavements and in Largo da Graça.

Chagas Hill named after the church built there by sailors on the route to India in honour of the Wounds of Christ, currently corresponds to the area around Largo do Carmo.

St Catherine's Hill which currently runs from Camões to Calçada do Combro.

Hill of São Roquealso confused by some as hill of St Peter of Alcântara which never existed because it was named after a street and a garden with a very recent name. It is also home to the São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint, which is perhaps the source of the confusion.

Event details

Event Description

At this event we will walk in an area where there is no shortage of places of interest, be it the Roman Bridge of Cheleiros, the Anços Waterfalls or the well-preserved village of Mata Pequena. Another event not to be missed!

Cheleiros Roman Bridge:

The bridge has a single round arch with a trestle deck and a walled guard. The intrados of the arch reveals the stonework, while all the other surfaces are fully plastered, with the exception of the pavement, which is made up of rolled pebbles.

Penedo do Lexim:

A former volcanic chimney of the Lisbon volcanic complex, Penedo do Lexim has a natural monumentality, almost like a cliff castle.

This elevation, located next to the Ribeira de Cheleiros (now the União das Freguesias de Igreja Nova e Cheleiros), was chosen as a living space for millennia and is one of the most significant archaeological sites in the municipality of Mafra.

This site has recorded occupation phases from various chronological periods, from the Neolithic period (4000 BC) to Roman times.

Around 5,000 years ago, a group of shepherds and farmers settled in Penedo do Lexim and left significant traces of their occupation: everyday artefacts (pottery, chipped and polished stone, worked bone, metal and food remains), living areas (huts) and defensive structures.

This "natural castle" surrounded by cliffs was fortified with walls and is an example of the first defensive architecture to appear in the 3rd millennium BC throughout the Iberian Peninsula.

Some of the points of interest on the walk

- Walk in the west - Cheleiros Roman Bridge - Cheleiros Mother Church - Lizandro River - Mourão River - Mourão River Waterfalls, in Anços - Penedo do Lexim - Mata Pequena Village - Mills - Natural landscapes -

Event Description

This walk starts at Azenhas do Mar Beach, in the car park next to the bus stop, and follows trails of great natural beauty with excellent scenery and several rural paths. Also noteworthy is the Mata River Valley, which flows right into Magoito Beach. From this magical valley, where the Ribeiro do Samogueiro flows, a very beautiful waterfall is often formed, provided by the abrupt fall of the water that flows, looking for the larger watercourse that will take it to the Atlantic Ocean.

Our route also takes us past Praia do Magoito, with its walkways, Praia da Aguda and finally to Praia das Azenhas do Mar, where we can cool off in the sea or the swimming pool. A route that brings together the beach and the countryside. Another event not to be missed!

Event details

Event Description

Neste evento vamos ficar a conhecer o percurso do Mítico Eléctrico 28, num percurso onde aproveitaremos para espreitar algumas curiosidades da nossa Lisboa, visitar alguns monumentos e deitar a vista a Miradouros e Jardins por onde serpenteia o 28, desde o Largo Martim Moniz até ao Cemitério dos Prazeres.

Fábrica de Cerâmica da Viúva Lamego

Desde 1849 que a Viúva Lamego cria peças únicas usando métodos artesanais que embelezam o mundo. Inicialmente a Viúva Lamego, cujas instalações fabris se localizavam no edifício onde hoje se situa a sua loja no Largo do Intendente em Lisboa, produzia artigos utilitários (talhas, etc) em barro vermelho e faiança e azulejos em barro branco.

No início do século XX o azulejo foi ganhando importância e a produção em barro vermelho foi terminando. Nos anos trinta a Viúva Lamego iniciou uma colaboração estreita com artistas plásticos, que nas suas instalações, passaram cada vez mais a usar o azulejo para exprimirem as suas criações.

Os mestres da Viúva Lamego continuam a fabricar uma vasta gama de azulejos sempre em pintura manual, a elaborar trabalhos especiais a partir de criações de autores e desenvolver novos produtos que perpetuam a integração do azulejo na Arquitetura.

Igreja e Cripta de Santo António

Igreja reconstruida, a partir de 1767, segundo risco de Mateus Vicente de Oliveira, sensivelmente no mesmo local do templo primitivo, destruido pelo terramoto. Monumento Nacional, é um edifício tardo-barroco de linhas sinuosas marcadas no desenho do frontão e da escadaria. Com planta longitudinal, em cruz latina, apresenta nave única, coberta por abóbada de berço, recorrendo à utilização abundante dos mármores. Do recheio da igreja destacam-se: as telas de Pedro Alexandrino de Carvalho, localizadas no transepto; as grades neo-medievais do arq. Vasco Regaleira a imitar a célebre grade da Sé de Lisboa; o programa azulezar da sacristia, da 2ª metade do séc. XVIII; a imagem de Sto. Antº recuperada do templo inicial; e a pequena cripta que simboliza, segundo a tradição, o local de nascimento de Santo António.

O jardim da Estrela

O jardim, originalmente “Passeio da Estrela”, foi construído em meados do século XIX por iniciativa do Marquês de Tomar, em terrenos adquiridos pela CML graças a um donativo do benemérito Barão de Barcelinhos no valor de “cinco contos de reis”. A construção do jardim contou também com um donativo equivalente de Joaquim Manuel Monteiro, que mais tarde recebeu o título de Visconde, e depois Conde da Estrela. A construção do jardim teve início a 30 de Setembro de 1842 contando com a ajuda do arquitecto, Pedro José Pezerat. As plantações foram orientadas pelos jardineiros João Francisco e o francês Jean Bonard, sendo inaugurado a 3 de Abril de 1852. Surgia assim, na Capital um jardim diferente, reflectindo no seu traçado, a nova concepção romântica de parque à inglesa.

Fazendo um inteligente aproveitamento dos acidentes do terreno, tornou-se possível construir uma colina artificial com vista sobre o Tejo e uma gruta subterrânea, ao mesmo tempo que todo o espaço era percorrido por alamedas sinuosas e embelezado com lagos, uma vistosa cascata, estufas, quiosques e um elegante pavilhão chinês, traçado por Pezerat. O mais sensacional atractivo da Estrela veio de África e foi oferecido pelo explorador africano Paiva Raposo em 1870: um leão, tendo sido, até morrer, o atractivo deste jardim.

Event details

Event Description

This walk starts at the Dunas da Cresmina Interpretation Centre and heads towards the beautiful Atlantic coast, with breathtaking landscapes. From Guincho beach to Praia da Grota, we'll get to know all the beauty of this area and on the way back we'll take the opportunity to use lesser-known rural paths and trails. Not to be missed are the panoramic views of Guincho Beach, Cabo Raso and Abano Beach, with its fort on the seafront.

The Abano Fort:

Forte do Abano, also known as Forte do Guincho or Forte das Velas, is located between Praia do Abano and Praia do Guincho. It is very close to Cascais, Sintra and Lisbon, strategically facing the sea, close to everything, but almost hidden... which gives it a special magic!

The fort was built around 1642, during the reign of King João IV, to guard and protect the coast. It was part of a group of fortresses built to defend the Cascais coast.

It is rectangular in shape, with a central courtyard; the area facing the land served as accommodation and the seafront housed all the necessary artillery.

After its defensive functions, during the last century it served as a support centre for campers and water sports, and there is a project launched by the Cascais City Council to turn this monument into an interpretation centre for the Sintra Natural Park.

It is currently unoccupied and falling into disrepair, but without losing the characteristic charm of an imposing historic building by the sea!

North of Abano

From Abano beach and for about 1 kilometre to the north, there is a succession of limestones and marls between 160 and 145 million years old. These sedimentary rocks show geological structures resulting from the evolution of the region at a time when the North Atlantic Ocean was beginning to expand. As well as faults and submarine landslide structures associated with this tectonic activity, the effects of the intrusion of magmatic rocks (Sintra Igneous Complex) into these layers, which occurred around 80 million years ago, can also be seen, namely a network of lodes with diverse geometries, as well as the effects of heat and fluids that gave rise to phenomena of low intensity metamorphism.

Distance: 12 kilometres

Difficulty: 3.5 (Scale from 1 to 5, 1 being the easiest)

Estimated duration: 4h30

Pedra Ferida Waterfall and Louçainha Beach

The trail runs through the Serra do Espinhal in a valley where the Azenha stream flows, where we'll find the admirable Pedra Ferida waterfall, almost 25 metres high, which forms a delightful natural pool. And if the waterfall is enchanting, the trail that leads to it is enthralling. Along the Ribeira da Azenha, we are treated to lush vegetation, the omnipresent sound of running water, small pools of water, wooden bridges and old watermills. There's even a picnic area where you can enjoy a picnic surrounded by nature. A real enchanted forest to savour slowly.

Praia Fluvial da Louçainha is a small paradise in the municipality of Penela. This refuge is in the middle of the dense Serra do Espinhal. It takes advantage of the naturalness of the Azenha stream due to the construction of several dams with different depths. This place is very popular in the region due to the surrounding landscape, which conveys tranquillity due to the perfect union of the green of the mountains with the crystalline freshness of the waters

1pm - Picnic lunch suggestion (up to each participant)

15h30- Tour of Penela (Castle, Mother Church, Pillory, etc.)

A ocupação militar do outeiro, onde se localiza Penela é muito antiga, remontando pelo menos aos Romanos, que daqui vigiavam a estrada Mérida-Conímbriga-Braga. Invadida pelos Árabes em 716, foi depois retomada no séc. XI pelo Conde D. Sesnando, primeiro governador de Coimbra. O conde mandou erigir no local da alcáçova um forte castelo, que repovoou, nascendo assim um burgo cristão sob a proteção das muralhas ameiadas. Deste povoamento subsistem as sepulturas escavadas na rocha de desenho antropomórfico. A sua construção data do séc. XI, apesar do que hoje se pode ver do Castelo remontar somente aos Séculos XIV e XV. No seu interior tem a Igreja de São Miguel, cujas primeiras origens se prendem ao séc. XII. O castelo de Penela é Monumento Nacional.

- Ribeira de Alge
- Ribeira do Fato

- Cork Oak Forest
- Brás Curado Bridge
- Fragas de São Simão and Ermida walkways
- Natural landscapes

Distance: 10 kilometres

Difficulty: 3.5 (Scale from 1 to 5, 1 being the easiest)

Estimated duration: 3h30m

Casal de São Simão Schist Trail

This walk takes place on the walkways of the Fragas de São Simão, visits the schist village of Casal de São Simão and runs along the idyllic banks of the Ribeira de Alge and Fato, where the old watermills still shine, and through the quiet villages of Além da Ribeira, Ponte do Brás Curado and Saondam as well as the river beach of the Fragas de São Simão.

Fragas do Casal de São Simão walkways

The Fragas de São Simão walkway is approximately 2 kilometres long and connects the Schist Village of Casal de São Simão to the lofty Fragas de São Simão viewpoint, passing by the stunning Fragas de São Simão River Beach.

Part of the "Peniche Peninsula" geosite, which is a limestone platform that has been eroded by wind, rain and the sea, you can see the beautiful shapes that erosion has created, forming a lapiás.

Casal de São Simão River Beach

The beach is a 15-minute walk (along the footpath) from the village of Casal de São Simão. The water of the Ribeira de Alge, which passes by on its way to the Zêzere, is so clear that you can see the small stones inside.

The abundance of laurel trees and cork oaks gives the air a comforting fragrance and the green of the surrounding hills, which lead to the Lousã mountain range, envelop us in beautiful scenery. The river beach is located between two imposing crags, where climbing is practised with various equipped routes, abseiling and slides. The "smaller" rocks are used as a solarium or diving board. Walking south, next to the beach, you'll find several levadas and cloaks of the region's original flora.

Schist Village of Casal de São Simão

A small village with practically a single street, essentially built from quartzite. It is located on one of the flanks of the quartzite ridge that gives rise to the Fragas de São Simão and has the oldest church in the municipality of Figueiró dos Vinhos. The village stretches along a ridge almost parallel to the course of the Ribeira de Alge. The entrance is at the highest point and the village ends where the slopes have made it difficult to continue the road.

Event details

Event Description

At this event we will walk numa zona bem perto de Lisboa, mas onde não faltam motivos de interesse, como sejam as vistas abrangentes, que permitem abarcar desde a Serra de Montejunto à Serra de Sintra, panorâmicas diferentes sobre o Vale de Loures e Montemor, com a sua Capela, onde aproveitaremos o seu largo para uma pausa a meio desta caminhada. Após Montemor encetaremos a nossa descida até ao ponto de partida, junto à Igreja Matriz de Loures, mas antes do final poderemos ainda observar os jardins do Palácio do Correio-Mor. Mais um evento a não perder!

Capela de Nossa Senhora da Saúde:

Segundo a tradição, na sequência de um terrível surto de peste que teve início em Lisboa em 15 de Outubro de 1598, que cedo se propagou pela maior parte do reino, matando muitas pessoas, e durando até cerca de cinco anos, muita gente de Lisboa terá fugido da cidade, procurando os ares puros das povações ao redor, como o desta pequena aldeia da várzea de Loures, situada no topo de um pequeno monte (donde o seu nome de Montemor).

A Montemor foram então ter várias famílias de Lisboa, trazendo uma delas, uma imagem de Nossa Senhora (a qual ainda hoje se venera na capela), à qual logo construíram uma pequena ermida ou nicho, prometendo-lhe aumentá-la se a peste terminasse.

Em 1603 acabou o contágio, e não se esqueceram do seu voto: mandaram edificar logo uma capela, que a devoção dos fiéis ainda ampliou depois. A imagem da Virgem passou então a ser cultuada como Nossa Senhora da Saúde; desta época, aliás, datam vários outros santuários dedicados a Nossa Senhora sob esta invocação (veja-se, por exemplo, a homónima Capela da Senhora da Saúde em Sacavém).

As paredes da capela-mor foram desde o seu princípio revestidas de azulejos, e em 1626, os irmãos da confraria da Senhora mandaram forrar de azulejos o corpo da capela, o que consta da inscrição dos mesmos azulejos. Por volta de 1700, terá sido acrescentada uma boa tribuna de talha dourada.

Em frente da capela há um alpendre com seu átrio, de onde se goza um dilatado e formoso panorama. O tecto deste alpendre está colocado sobre quatro colunas, quadradas, de mármore, tendo na arquitrave do centro esta inscrição: “ESTE ALPENDRE MANDOU FAZER MIGUEL TOSTADO DA MAIA À SUA CUSTA EM O ANNO DE 1621”

Palácio do Correio-Mor:

Construído no séc. XVIII, o nome deste palácio deve-se ao facto de ter pertencido a Luís Gomes da Mata, Correio-Mor no tempo de Filipe II. A autoria é, provavelmente, do italiano António Canevari (um dos arquitectos do Convento de Mafra), que concebeu uma fachada em U, cercada por um muro alto com porta brasonada que dá acesso ao pátio. No interior encontramos uma sucessão de magníficas salas onde se destacam os azulejos e os tectos em estuque com pinturas de José da Costa Negreiros, enquanto a escadaria de acesso ao andar nobre apresenta uma bela fonte setecentista. Nos jardins salientam-se as cascatas e os azulejos com cenas mitológicas. (Imóvel de Interesse Público).

A Quinta do Correio Mor corresponde a uma propriedade com cerca de 130 ha, localizados no concelho de Loures, a qual integra o Palácio, do séc. XVIII.

Nota: A caminhada não inclui Visita ao Palácio do Correio-Mor
