Your day with us begins at the Welcome Center of the Protected Landscape.

In this space, we are ready to assist you with everything you need, ensuring you make the most of your stay:

  1. Information Point: We are prepared to provide you with all the information you need about the rich biodiversity and culture of the Montado.
  2. Activities: Discover the various activities you can experience.
  3. Food and Accommodation: We offer information about meal options at the Cantina, suggestions for snacks during hikes, and different accommodation possibilities.
  4. Local Products Store: We sell products from our Agroforests, Alentejo and Acorn Bread baked in a wood-fired oven, souvenirs, books, and agricultural tools.

Upon arrival, you will be welcomed with an acorn infusion, a typical regional drink. While enjoying your infusion, you can relax on the terrace, admire the traditional houses of the estate, the surrounding vegetation, and chat with passersby—no matter how busy they may seem, they won’t turn down a good conversation!

How to get here

The Protected Landscape of Montado do Freixo do Meio is located about 100 km from Lisbon, in the heart of the Alentejo region, in the municipality of Montemor-o-Novo, near the village of Foros de Vale de Figueira.

To get here, take the A6 motorway (Marateca – Elvas) until the first exit for Montemor. Then, follow the N114 towards Coruche for about 15 km until you reach the village of Foros de Vale de Figueira. From there, simply follow the signs directing you to Montado do Freixo do Meio.

Although outside the city, the road is good, and the drive is very pleasant, offering a typical Alentejo landscape.

Safe travels, and we look forward to seeing you!
