Legal regime in 2026: DL 124/2006 (municipal forest fire plan still in force)
Aguiar da Beira is a municipality in the district of Guarda (sub-region: Viseu Dão Lafões), covering 207 km² in 10 parishes. Most of it — 79 % — is forest land (woodland, scrub or natural pasture, according to the COS 2025 land-cover map): there, the strip around each house is 50 m wide.
The map finds 88 villages (groups of at least 10 buildings); the largest are Aguiar da Beira, Carapito and Coruche. 21 of them have forest land on more than half of the 100 m strip around them — among them Quinta das Lameiras, Gradiz and Cavaca.
