Understand the place

The houses rise up the slope of Serra da Lousã next to the road that connects the village of Lousã to the highest areas of the mountain.

What to watch out for

Walk along the sloping street and notice how the schist houses adapt to the slope and the view over the valley. The location makes Candal accessible but also highly sought after; visit outside of busy hours and use the designated spaces.

Prepare the passage

Take time to explore the city center on foot, respect homes and properties and only use designated parking spaces. Confirm any changes to access, events and services on the official network and local entities.
