Miradouro do Norte is the perfect place to take it all in. Overlooking the sprawling valley, dotted with ridges and valleys and stretching out towards the horizon, this scenic spot offers an unparalleled view of the area. On a clear day, visitors can even take in breathtaking views of Lisbon from up high. With very little interruption to the greenery from the coastal side of the escarpment, Miradouro do Norte's vista has remained stunningly untouched for centuries. One of its most intriguing features is the 16th century Franciscan monastery which can be seen peeking out through the trees. Photographers and nature lovers alike flock to this lookout every year, making it the ideal place to explore the grandeur of Serra da Arrabida Natural Park.
