The municipality of Pedrógão Grande is located in the northern interior pine forest area, known for being one of the largest forest areas in Europe, belonging to the Leiria District in the central region of Portugal.
It is a region with a rich natural heritage, known for its stunning landscapes and popular traditions combined with the purity of the air and water bodies that characterize it. The passage of the Zêzere River, the Ribeira de Pêra and the Ribeira de Frades, which originates and flows into the municipality, provides a diversity of recreational and nautical activities for those who live in and visit the region.
