Walking in the heart of Portugal: Natural Serra d’Aire e Candeeiros
In the Serra d’Aire e Candeeiros are many hiking trails. The distances and difficulty vary walk. The park is extracted limestone used for sidewalks, decorative stone and raw material for cement industry
On the east side of the park in 1994 were footprints of dinosaurs found in a total of 20 tracks revealed, where you can walk. At various places in the park you can visit caves. The park has a beautiful landscape with lots of olive trees, spectacular valleys and deep ravines.

City walk in Coimbra (5 km)
An hour’s drive from Casa Ceedina is the university city of Coimbra. The walk that we have for you, takes you through narrow streets, squares and the covered market.
