Pico do Sobreiro rises to 1,537 metres and forms part of the impressive mountain skyline that separates Galicia from Portugal. Its visual proximity to other major peaks of the Gerês allows visitors in Olelas to appreciate the complexity of the terrain and the succession of summits that shape this granite massif.
These high-altitude areas experience particularly demanding environmental conditions, with strong winds, lower temperatures and plant communities adapted to the mountain environment. The protected Gerês-Xurés landscape is also home to emblematic species such as the wolf and golden eagle, as well as numerous reptiles and amphibians associated with its diverse habitats.
From the viewpoint, Pico do Sobreiro offers an invitation to discover the wilder, more mountainous character of this cross-border territory.
