A lesser-known fact is that Portugal has one of the highest percentages of forested lands in all of Europe with approximately 36% of the country covered with trees. Approximately 1.2% of Portugal consists of water with Alqueva Lake spanning the largest area.

Likewise, Tagus is the longest river in the Iberian Peninsula. It’s the west-flowing Tagus River that divides the country into these two distinctive regions. But other prominent rivers include the Doura, Guadiana, and Minho.
