Valhelhas sits at the entrance to the Serra da Estrela, continental Portugal's highest mountain range. The village has a river beach on the Zezere and basic services — a cafe and a mini-market. From here, the terrain becomes noticeably more mountainous.
The Road
About 1.5 km after Valhelhas, the camino turns left onto a secondary asphalt road. After 250 m, turn right onto the dirt road (there is no arrow) instead of continuing straight.
