Vila de Rei

Vila de Rei is a municipality in the district of Castelo Branco (sub-region: Beira Baixa), covering 192 km² in 3 parishes. Most of it — 90 % — 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 116 villages (groups of at least 10 buildings); the largest are Vila de Rei, Fundada and Milreu. 60 of them have forest land on more than half of the 100 m strip around them — among them Estevais, Milreu and Seada.
