    Getting TO/AROUND: A good and comfortable to arrive in Covilhã is by car. This city is less than 300km from Lisbon, and most of the road it is highway, so the trip will be very fast and simple. A toll is required, but I don't remember value.

    Getting TO/AROUND: There are daily trains from Lisbon to Covilhã, as well as from other cities around the country. The train station is close to city centre and there are taxis and buses that may take visitors from train station to other places around the city or nearby localities. For further info on trains, check the Portuguese railways: www.cp.pt.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Being a somewhat small city, it is easily discovered if you walk around. I thing it is the best way, as its streets are narrow and driving around may become a little complicated, at least for longer cars. Parking is not that easy and if you are walking around you won't have to worry about this and may wonder around at ease.

     A very comprehensive and informative page on Covilha! It makes me wish that we had been able to slow down to enjoy it a bit as we rushed through to the Serra da Estrela!!
