Local detail
The drive to Casa Mãe takes you through varied and interesting landscapes. After crossing the Tagus River, you enter the Alentejo region, known for its vast plains, cork oak forests, and excellent wines. While the A2 is a direct route, optional stops can enrich your journey. Consider a curated lunch stop in the Alentejo to savor regional specialties, or a detour to the stunning Arrábida Natural Park, where the mountains meet the sea, offering breathtaking coastal views and the charming fishing town of Setúbal.
Further south, before reaching Lagos, the historic port city of Sines offers another potential stop, with its castle and connection to Vasco da Gama.
