Snow in Serra da Estrela – Sky and Snowboard

Serra da Estrela is, without a doubt, the best snow destination in Portugal, were it not for the highest mountain in Portugal, with 1,993m of altitude at its highest point. There is not always snow in the mountains, but this is likely to happen between November and April.

When temperatures remain cold for long periods, it is natural to be able to see Serra da Estrela covered with snow, especially in the Serra da Estrela Tower which is the highest point in the mountains and in mainland Portugal.

Serra da Estrela has a ski resort for snow lovers.
