Buçaco Forest, Protected natural forest in Trezói, Portugal.
The Buçaco Forest extends across a mountainous terrain with ancient trees, diverse plant species, and numerous walking paths covering 105 hectares of land.
Carmelite monks established the forest sanctuary in 1628, cultivating both native and exotic tree species while building religious structures throughout the grounds.
The forest grounds contain multiple chapels, religious monuments, and the Palace Hotel of Buçaco, constructed in Neo-Manueline architecture between 1888 and 1905.
Visitors can access the forest by following Route 110 northeast from Coimbra, with designated parking areas and marked trails throughout the protected area.
Two papal bulls from the 17th century threatened excommunication for damaging trees and prohibited women from entering certain sections of the forest grounds.
