Planning Your Visit to the Monastery of Santa Clara-a-Velha

Portugal dos Pequenitos is about 160 m away; use bus 47. Mosteiro de Santa Clara-a-Velha is about 180 m away; use buses 14, 6, 244, 49, 38, 22F, 13P and 41. Coimbra-B railway station is approximately 2.7 km away in a straight line; use the live SMTUC and Metrobus network planner for the station connection and current platform direction.

If the named nearby car park is full, use a signed municipal facility around Parque Verde do Mondego, the lower city or Praça da República, then continue on foot or by bus. The Alta has steep, narrow and access-controlled streets, so verify the final approach before driving uphill.

The nearest mapped cycle parking is about 90 m away at Rua António Augusto Gonçalves (10 spaces, uncovered); use a proper lock and do not assume the stand is monitored. Coimbra's riverside cycle corridors are the easiest approach; routes into the Alta are steep, and shared bicycles or scooters must be left only at an authorised parking point.

Navigate to Rua das Parreiras, 3040-266, Coimbra. From Portugal dos Pequenitos, allow for an approximately 160 m final walk and follow signs to the public visitor entrance.
