What you can expect

Dare to visit Guarda, with more than 800 years of history.
Start your adventure next to the statue of the city's founder; travel back in time, to the twelfth century, with D. Sancho I, the colonist, and unravel his main concerns. Then, visit the magnificent Cathedral and be dazzled by the interior and the panoramic view from the terraces. In Praça Luís Vaz de Camões, find out why the Cockerel is judged and burned at the stake every year.
Walk through the Jewish Quarter and cross the ancient wall through the timeless doors of D'El Rei and Erva. On the way, enjoy the Church of S. Vicente and the ingenious Torre dos Ferreiros.
Discover the cosy José de Lemos Garden; the old Convent of S. Francisco and the modern building of the Municipal Theatre of Guarda. At Parque da Saúde, let yourself be carried away by the tranquility.
Throughout your tour you will meet Rui de Pina; Friar Pedro da Guarda; Lopo de Carvalho and Sousa Martins; José Maria Pedrosa.
On the way back to the starting point, admire the Santa Clara School.
End the tour at the place where it began: next to the Statue of D. Sancho I.

The Tour presents an easy/moderate level of difficulty (2/5 - MIDE) and has a total of 3.36 km, with an accumulated uneven of 108 m.
