COME ON A TOUR WITH US TO DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF THE FIREFLIESβ¨β¨β¨
The forests of Sintra and Cascais hide many beautiful secrets, and it is between the months of May and June that one of them comes to life β the season of the firefly. During these months, forested areas are transformed into a dazzling spectacle, created by fireflies through a biochemical reaction that releases energy in the form of light.
These flashes are a form of communication used by fireflies to attract and find partners of the same species for reproduction.
However, these insects are threatened by the destruction of their habitat, as forests become increasingly degraded. Their future is uncertain, and during our tour we will talk about the importance of restoring their habitat to ensure the survival of these wonderful natural treasures.
Join us!
