The history of Portugal is rich. The country was one of the greatest European powers from the 15th century onwards, thanks in particular to its fleet of ships. Its famous navigators ⛵️ brought undeniable historic prestige to the country. Vasco da Gama was the first European to reach India by sea routes (1498). Ferdinand Magellan meanwhile supposedly completed the first world tour (1519-1522) passing through the south of <a href="kavval://countries/e090efb1-aa93-4b86-87ad-ab81a9e23be8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Chile</a> and Tierra del Fuego... Truly unforgettable in History! Oriented towards the Atlantic 💦, Portugal is organized around its capital <a href="kavval://cities/a03cb509-ac1c-472d-8dfd-8eb27606d1cc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lisbon</a> and the economic hub of Porto. The two most important cities in the country compete not only in football! We won't decide here between these two <a href="kavval://tags/seaside" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">coastal</a> cities, it's all up to individual tastes 😁. What is certain is that they both have incredible charm 😍! Of course, we invite you to discover, always with moderation, Port wine, whose vineyards flank the Douro Valley, a river that originates in <a href="kavval://countries/1f42f9da-f693-4bc9-96de-bb6e531060a7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spain</a> and flows into the Atlantic... at Porto. The north of the country is quite mountainous while the center and south are more suited to agriculture, with large expanses of plateaus and plains. Different island areas are also notable, such as the entire <a href="kavval://level1AdminAreas/fbc1bf98-8684-4431-a77a-c75bbbaac2dd" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Azores</a> and Pico Island, which houses the highest peak ⛰ in Portugal, Mount Pico (2,351 meters). The country has a unique way of life and its people have a great sense of hospitality... So, pastéis de nata or bacalhau? 😋 You'll decide on the spot!You can find the entire race calendar here in&nbsp;Portugal. <a href="kavval://pages/19c6236d-b5b7-431a-87ba-e50b74dcd383" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trail</a>,&nbsp;<a href="kavval://pages/5b49242e-6288-4e30-8649-74eb1ab8563f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">walking</a>,&nbsp;<a href="kavval://pages/baaef010-e9a4-4bab-9564-803d2d9d4f29" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">half-marathon</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="kavval://pages/390ac20f-6103-4b2e-930e-b570ed852fb1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">marathon</a>, the birthplace of&nbsp;Cristiano Ronaldo ⚽️ is generous, you'll surely find your happiness. Road runners already noted the <a href="kavval://events/d087ce8a-13d7-4022-b809-aeceff318e1f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lisbon Marathon</a>, the <a href="kavval://events/a32da8af-d38b-4523-b0a1-08307429d3a7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lisbon Half Marathon</a> or even the <a href="kavval://events/821c49cb-c923-4946-a252-e9ba982a98e5" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Porto Marathon</a> and the <a href="kavval://events/339aff52-7366-4bc4-9cb8-7a1b34ea8bb1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Porto Half Marathon</a>, races that will allow you to combine athletic pleasure with epicurean pleasure. The bay of the Portuguese capital is timeless... Still in Lisbon, this time on the paths along the Tagus River, the <a href="kavval://events/f936e644-0e83-4229-93d8-1872327d36c1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ultra Maratona Caminhos Do Tejo</a> offers its competitors two courses, both counting for the <a href="kavval://events/6bf47aa3-2939-4186-89bf-1ade262fe679" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">UTMB</a>. Did we mention Cristiano?

It is in this area that the aptly named <a href="kavval://events/a6fce62e-cfb7-4be5-b571-cea2b378790b" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Oh Meu Deus</a> (oh My God) race takes place. Will it come with its share of miracles? Your result will tell us. Speaking of miracles, two Portuguese athletes performed them and entered the Great History of Athletics. <a href="kavval://pages/4c156cc6-5bed-4c8f-ad09-397d703b8164" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Carlos Lopes</a> in 1984 after his victory at the Los Angeles Olympics and <a href="kavval://pages/6c19b81d-40ef-4e11-b8fe-6b38408797a4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rosa Mota</a> 4 years later during the 1988 Seoul Olympics...After all, there's more to Portugal than just Fátima...

A country of explorers to explore

Distrito de Castelo Branco

Comprising 11 municipalities, this diverse region invites you to explore spectacular landscapes, <a href="https://centerofportugal.com/fr/destination/villages-de-montagne" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">quaint hilltop villages</a>, and historic sites nestled among <a href="kavval://tags/58c16ed9-f7c2-4d12-ae52-920f5f7428f3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">mountains</a> ⛰️, plains, and lakes. Let's embark on a journey to discover this district together!Starting in the south, near the Spanish border 🇪🇸, you will find the lesser-known <a href="https://www.tejointernacional.pt/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Parque Natural do Tejo Internacional</a>. This impressive natural reserve is located along the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagus" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tagus River</a>. In this region, where time seems to stand still, the villages and towns offer a true immersion into local history and culture. About an hour's drive away, we recommend visiting Monsanto! Named the most Portuguese village in 1938, it’s a gem perched on a granite hill with a unique architecture. Its houses, built among massive stone blocks, and its winding cobbled streets lead you to the top, offering a breathtaking view of the valley. A little trivia for literature enthusiasts 📖: the doctor and writer Fernando Namora practiced in Monsanto. You might find some connections to this period of his life in his book "Retalhos da Vida de um Médico".Continuing our journey towards the southeast, near the border with the <a href="kavval://level1AdminAreas/e495c69d-8c6c-4faa-aeec-d9bd830fd08e" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">district of Guarda</a>, you'll encounter the <a href="https://www.visitportugal.com/en/node/156075" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Reserva Natural da Serra da Malcata</a>, a region of gentle hills and dense forests 🌲. It's one of the last places where the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iberian_lynx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Iberian lynx</a> can still be seen. This preserved area is perfect for disconnecting and exploring a wild, authentic Portugal. The reserve is the result of one of the country's largest environmental campaigns. Following the decline of this iconic animal, environmental advocates secured protection for this unique habitat in 1981. Today, Serra da Malcata remains a sanctuary for many animal and plant species. Several peaks exceed 1,000 meters in altitude, with the chain's highest point being <a href="https://pt.wikiloc.com/trilhas-trekking/da-malcata-ao-alto-da-machoca-34447411" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alto da Machoca</a>, also known as "Telefe", which rises to 1,078 meters. This summit offers spectacular views of the region and is a favorite spot for lovers of <a href="kavval://pages/5b49242e-6288-4e30-8649-74eb1ab8563f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">hiking</a> and unspoiled nature.Further west, welcome to <a href="https://www.visitportugal.com/en/node/132767" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Covilhã</a>! Once the industrial heart of Portuguese textiles, it now boasts a vibrant face with its museums, murals, and university 🏫. The historic district, with its repurposed old factories, tells the story of this industry's importance. From the city, you can easily access the mountain to explore the alpine landscapes of Portugal's most significant mountain range, the "<a href="kavval://places/25f2eb9c-baf3-43e2-a5ff-51007f59f40a" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Serra da Estrela</a>".Finally, Castelo Branco, the district's capital, is a true cultural hub. Its main attraction is the <a href="https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jardim_do_Pa%C3%A7o_(Castelo_Branco)" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jardim do Paço Episcopal</a>, a beautifully maintained baroque garden with its fountains ⛲, statues, and boxwood mazes. The Cargaleiro Museum showcases the works of one of Portugal's greatest ceramicists. Wandering through the historic center reveals the town's medieval heritage.Beyond its cultural and natural riches, the district of Castelo Branco is also a prime location for sports activities 🏟️. Each year, several iconic races attract athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. The <a href="kavval://events/27a84690-5496-4855-9369-354fc7945981" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ultra Trail de Gardunha</a> is one of the most popular events, offering participants challenging courses through the region's rugged terrain. The Corrida de São Silvestre de Castelo Branco, held at the end of the year, offers a festive and friendly race through the Christmas-lit streets. For those seeking a true challenge, the <a href="kavval://events/f11145ca-ab38-436b-8d6b-e82e73802670" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trail do Zêzere</a> allows you to traverse unique natural areas, skirting cliffs overlooking the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z%C3%AAzere_River" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zêzere River</a>.
