I'm only half that, the rest of my background is Douro and a bit of Minho.
Beira Alta is nice, but I just prefer Douro and Trás-os-Montes better. Some parts of it, especially in Guarda, are a bit flat and yellowish for my taste, kind of like the Spanish side, I'm not a huge fan of that.
Ó, anciã, Mãe! Nossa mágoa é eternaGlobal25 PCA West Eurasia dataset close up plot
Foste esquecida, perdida
Vossa glória, vossa honra, banida
Mas vosso canto prevalece no fogo e na névoa agreste.
Destronada e abandonada,
Por bastardos humilhada,
Ao esquecimento lançada.

I am not as familiar with that eastern region close to the border to be honest. Three or four years ago I did Fundão - Covilhã - Belmonte - Guarda by car on the national road and it was basically "curva atrás de curva" through a very mountainous terrain. The more eastern I have been in Beira Alta was in Sabugal:

Yes, the South and West parts of the district can be very steep, I also went there a few years ago (I have an aunt who lives near Belmonte), but the East not so much.
Here's the view from the main mountain in the region, Serra da Marofa/Morofa
It's a nice region, but I just prefer something like this

Yeah true. I do think I probably have lineage from the north. I also score mostly Castille y Leon, Asturias, and/or Galicia in high rates more than, for instance, Andalusia, or other coordinates. Even my haplogroups have a high prevalence in the northern area, mostly Valladolid samples, and Galicia.
