At Monsanto Forest Park, we're celebrating this season with a range of activities designed for all ages.
Throughout December, you can visit an exhibition dedicated to Christmas, take part in information sessions on growing aromatic herbs, get involved in environmental volunteering and, for the younger ones, discover "Christmas in the Forest", with games, adventures and creative workshops that invite you to explore nature and the spirit of the season.
Visit us and enjoy some family time in the heart of Lisbon's biodiversity.

Monsanto - 9 Decades of the Forest Park
Through photographs, documents and testimonies, it reveals how one man's vision and collective effort transformed a mountain range devoid of vegetation into an emblematic forest park.
More than a chronology, this exhibition invites reflection on the past, celebrates the present and inspires the construction of Monsanto's future. Visitors will be able to explore never-before-seen images of the mountains before planting, understand the park's social and environmental impact and hear stories from those who live, work or visit the area.
The exhibition is an invitation to discover the secrets and living memory of the city's green lung.
The activity is part of the educational offer to schools, including guided tours.
