This is the perfect solution for those who want a challenging tour that requires some physical resistance and a memorable reward once you reach the destination.

Only 25 minutes from the city centre, you’ll be able to discover a huge area of forest, the so-called “Lisbon’s lungs”. Monsanto is still a well-kept secret especially for the mass tourism that usually opts for the urban landmarks. This tour has both realities since it starts precisely in the middle of the city life, the main difference it’s the chosen circuit and the goal…

We’re talking about 900 hectares of greenery, crossed by cycle paths, endowed with astonishing viewpoints to admire the Tagus estuary and a large variety of sheltering wildlife.

The area is divided into smaller parks and gardens designed for activities varying from light strolls to advanced training circuits, Monsanto is the first choice for outdoor fun and relaxing moments.

One of the main highlights of Monsanto is the abandoned “Restaurante Panorâmico”, an old restaurant that offers a splendid 180-degree view of Lisbon, it´s breathtaking…
