Natural Park - PNSAC

The Aire and Candeeiros moutain ranges are the most important repository of limestone formations in Portugal and this was the first reason of its classification (Decreto-Lei nº 118/79, de 4 de Maio) as a Natural Park.

Karst morphology, nature of vegetation, the network of underground rivers, a specific fauna (including in caves), and intense activity in the extraction of the stone are so some of the aspects that its classification tries to preserve.
