Colos Trailhead

A difficult and very varied route that runs south of Colos through remote areas of almost untouched nature.

In addition to numerous small climbs and descents, its main difficulties are a climb from 3 km to 14 km, and another from 37 km to 45 km, both intersected by several small descents.

At first it goes west towards the Tamera community, one of the largest ecovillages in Portugal, continuing south and then east. It mainly follows along rural and forest roads, almost always in the middle of a stunning vegetation with many cork oak groves and pastures.

It has no single tracks and no noteworthy waterline crossings.

Fully marked trail. Learn more about our signage here.

Author’s recommendation

Most notable points:

- Tamera Community (6 km)

- Relíquias (12 km)

- Funcheira train station (37 km), an important railway terminus of the southern line and the Alentejo line.

This route is accessible from trains that stop at Funcheira and Amoreiras-Gare stations.

In Amoreiras-Gare it would be unforgivable to pass without tasting the alcôncoras, a popular regional sweet made in the village.

Support Points:

12 km– Relíquias

22 km – Amoreiras-Gare

34 km – Garvão

37 km – Funcheira Station

44 km – Santa Luzia
