At the top of Serra da Gardunha, one of the most iconic spots of Central Portugal, more than a thousand meters above sea level, we find the swing of the Old Castle. Its view of the plateau from the Miradouro da Gardunha is refreshing. In addition to the swing, a little lower, we find another novelty, the Pasteleira da Gardunha.
