Castelo Branco

Castelo Branco sits on the edge of central Portugal's Gardunha Mountains, where serious trail runners and mountain bikers converge on rocky, forested terrain. The Ultra Trail de Gardunha and Ultra Trilhos da Gardunha offer 50km+ challenges through elevation change and technical singletrack, while the Entre Trilhos Malpiqueiros draws cyclists to a demanding 40km loop through the region's limestone and schist hills. Local runners also tackle the shorter TRAIL VILA DE MOUROS SPRINT at 17km if looking for a quick regional benchmark.
