Mount Piquinho, often known as Mount Pico, is Portugal's highest peak, standing at 7,713 feet above sea level. Pico Island is located in the Azores' mid-Atlantic archipelago. It's a stratovolcano made up of hardened lava, pumice, volcanic ash, and tephra layers.

The mountain has a history of dramatic eruptions, according to historical documents. An eruption in 1562 produced lava that reached the sea, while another in 1718 produced enough lava to reach the coast. The seismically active region surrounding the mountain is monitored by seismic and volcanic monitoring facilities.

It is situated on the boundary between the municipalities of Seia, District of Guarda, and Covilh, District of Castelo Branco, in the Serra da Estrela mountain range.According to measurements taken by the Instituto Geográfico do Exército, the exact elevation of this region is 1,993 meters (6,537 feet) (a military organization). A trig point that shows the highest point in Serra da Estrela was built right in the highest point of the mountain range, in the middle of a roundabout, near a route that connects the cities of Seia and Covilh.

A restaurant, stores selling regional specialties such as Serra da Estrela cheese, and the Vodafone Ski Resort, located in the municipality of Seia, are all located near Torre.
