Miradouro do Picoto de Milriça
On the top of the Milriça Mountain there is a first order geodesic vortex (587 metres high), a central pont in Portugal's maps. Besides that, there are wonderful views of the houses in Vila de Rei, the villages around it and a geomorphology dominated by schist and quartzite. The dark green pine trees, cut at times by the white villages, composes the most lovely canvas. To reach the top, one must depart from Vila de Rei to the road that leads to Fundada (in the north direction) and later on turn right.
