Itinerary

Capuchos Convent
Sintra MTB | MTB Tours in Portugal | Portugal Nature Trails

Capuchos Convent

Start the day climbing up to the mountains and going deep into the woods. The first stop that you might choose to take is Convento dos Capuchos, a Franciscan Convent built in direct contact with nature and in keeping with a philosophy of extreme architectural and decorative simplicity. This is was a place of worship and living and now is just a small and magical building that reminds us of how to be one with nature. It is also known as the “Cork convent” because of the extensive use of cork in the protection and decoration of its tiny spaces.
