Zêzere Gorge, Cambas
The quartzite cliffs of Zêzere Gorge are impressive successive layers of pure quartzite erected vertically at hundreds of meters of altitude and flanked by chaotic slope deposits drained to the banks of the river Zêzere. They are records of a collision between continents in the past, where the river Zêzere was successively excavating and fitting its bed.
