Location

Vale Flores de Cima Park is located in the town of Almada, within the area that shares its name, Vale Flores. This location, in a consolidated urban area, gives the park particular importance as a benchmark green space. Its position allows visitors to discover a natural and tranquil environment, a welcome break from the region's urban daily life.

A Green Legacy

The park's designation, evoking the former Quinta de Vale Flores de Cima (Vale Flores de Cima Farm), suggests a history of deep connection to the land and nature. This past as a rural property contributed to the preservation of a vast botanical heritage, which is evident today in the diversity of tree and floral species present. The park is, therefore, a living testament to a legacy that has adapted to the urban context, offering a space where human intervention harmonizes with the natural landscape.

Environment and Landscape

Characterized by its serene atmosphere, Vale Flores de Cima Park is an invitation to contemplation and relaxation. Its well-designed paths invite leisurely strolls, allowing visitors to appreciate the diverse flora that fills the space. The colors and scents of the flowers, which give the area its name, are a constant throughout the milder seasons. This peaceful environment makes the park an ideal spot for a refreshing break, a refuge from daily hustle and bustle, where nature reveals itself amidst urbanization.
