The range covers about 10 miles (16 km) from the resort town of Sintra to Cabo da Roca on the Atlantic Ocean.

Since a long time it has been a place full of myths and legends about supernatural activities and ones without obvious explanation. In 2009 a Portuguese television channel created a television series based on the supernatural environment that is lived in Sintra.[1] The story, set in college in the middle of the mountain tells of an impossible love between a vampire and a human girl, but she also with supernatural powers that are being discovered throughout the episodes.
