About this race
Trail Dos Diabos is a 16 km trail race in Vinhais, located in Portugal’s Braganca District, typically held in early March. This is a single-loop mountain-and-nature race, distinct from road events. The name and race description embrace a lighthearted devil theme, with participants encouraged to “unleash the devil within.”
The course is presented as a brief adventure across rugged natural terrain, with finishers characterizing it as wild and exhilarating. The surrounding area offers activities beyond the race itself: Montesinho Natural Park is close by, Braganca features a medieval castle, the historic village of Gimonde is worth a visit, and the region provides river beaches for a peaceful interlude post-run.
