Varanda da Estrela

Parque Natural da Serra da Estrela


This warming restaurant, decked out in wood and stone in classic chalet style, is an inviting spot to feast on authentic mountain food. That means Serra de Estrela's trademark cheese, locally-sourced javali (wild boar) and earthenware bowls of delicious juniper-spiked rice. The restaurant is just off the N339 road through Penhas.
