Sameiro

hike | 2023-02-05

This is the last peak of the trip, a small hill with communication masts and a dirt road. We left our car at one of the forks, although with a larger car it might be possible to drive all the way to the top (rough road). At the top we found a trig pillar, a cross, communication masts and possibly something else. There was a good view of the sea and the antennas of the Voice of America radio station.

Very green plain at the foot of the hill

We left the car at the fork

In a few minutes we will go back to the car and drive to the hotel. Later we will go to the airport to catch our flight to Lisbon, where we will have a long layover. Of course, we will use this opportunity to do some peakbagging and our first planned peak is Aire, a high point in the Santarém region of Portugal.
