Alfandega da Fe is a small town with less than 7.000 inhabitants located in the Tras os Montes region, a short drive away from Mirandela in Northern Portugal. In winter it usually snows in this region.
The faunal importance of this natural landscape is unquestionable, especially as regards the big birds of prey and the black stork.
The rugged slopes provide the peace necessary for the protection of numerous birds that breed here such as the Egyptian vulture -- the symbol of the Natural Park of International Douro.
Kids, rabbits, partridges, and hares live on the mountain tops and turn this region into a meeting point for those who are fond of hunting.
