Serra da Estrela
If you enjoy mountain activities, Serra da Estrela is one of the most sought-after destinations throughout the year. Sports like rock climbing, rappelling, hiking and mountain biking are just a few examples of what you can do.
In the winter, the mountains are covered in a blanket of snow, making it the ideal place for both kids and adults to practice their skiing and snowboarding skills at resorts like Torre, the highest point in mainland Portugal.
In the summer, the mountains become a hiker's paradise. The trail that leads to the source of the Zêzere River is a true delight for nature enthusiasts, offering stunning landscapes.
Madeira Island
We all know that Madeira is a natural paradise in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, but the island is also renowned as the perfect destination for those seeking adventure. One of the most exciting activities is canoeing, especially in the more remote areas of the island, where you can descend ravines, leap into the clear waters of the streams and rappel down waterfalls.
Climbing, paragliding and hiking are other activities you can explore.
Évora
There are many reasons to visit the Alentejo and this is just another one. Rent a Hertz vehicle and head to Évora, where you can experience a thrilling skydiving jump.
