Cannot say we had a fabulous night in Manteigas as a couple of young blokes started kicking a soccer ball about the adjoining basket ball court around 11.30 till midnight, when the ball went over the fence and into the night time never never.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We got back to sleep alright, but the mood was lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have come to Manteigas to do a walk in the National Park, so we head off looking for the park office at 9am. Only to find it\u2019s closed, so we walk on the find the tourist office closed as well. Monday appears to be a bad day to visit Manteigas. So we spend some time on-line, but other than a map, no information on parking, trail markers etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we have a half hour walk around town and drive up through the Serra da Estrella instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
