What are hiking and winery visit?

Azeitão refers to a cluster of pretty and tranquil villages in Setubal, 35 km away from Lisbon. This area is famous for cheese and white Moscatel wine.

The municipality of Azeitão is situated in the Natural Park of the Sierra de la Arrábida and is a peaceful region of great natural beauty which is why various noble families established their summer residences, which here founded Quintas and palaces, some build in pure Renaissance style like the Palace of the Dukes of Aveiro.
A visit to Azeitão is also an opportunity to taste the excellent products of the region, such as cheeses, famous cakes, and wines, among which are the table wines of the Piriquita caste and the Moscatel of Setúbal stand out.

Visiting a winery once in a lifetime given the opportunity has several perks. Wine has been around for a long time and has a certain place in history, culture, and religion. Vineyards are always in a unique location, providing visitors with picturesque and relaxing landscapes.

The Arrabida Mountains are a must view and the paths on the slopes provide good exercise.
