«Serra da Estrela ("Mountain Range of the Star") is the highest mountain range in Continental Portugal, (...) at 1,993 m (6,539 ft) - this point is not a distinctive mountain summit, but rather the highest point in a plateau, being known as Torre ("Tower" in English). It is formed from a huge granite ridge that once formed the southern frontier of the country. Due to its bizarrely shaped crags and gorges, mountain streams and lakes, beautiful forests and magnificent views, the area ranks among Portugal’s outstanding scenic attractions. There are three rivers that have their headwaters in the Serra da Estrela: the Mondego, (...) the Zêzere, (...) and the Alva. The mountain range is now part of the Serra da Estrela Natural Park and offers plentiful skiing opportunities in the ski resort of Loriga. The Cão da Serra da Estrela (Estrela Mountain Dog) is a breed of livestock guardian dog that takes its name from this region. Queijo Serra da Estrela (Serra da Estrela cheese) is a soft cheese from the region of Serra da Estrela. The recipe has more than 2000 years. It is made from cardoon thistle, raw sheep's milk and salt. The cheese is soft and gooey.» IN: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serra_da_Estrela
