Event Description

On a full moon night, we'll go for a walk along one of the most breathtaking slopes of the Serra de Sintra, where we'll be able to ascend to some of its strategic points that will allow us to get a fantastic view of the coastal area, from Cascais to Abano, with Peninha and the Pena Palace as the highlights.
