Ramalhal

The Ramalhal hiking trail is a loop trail that begins and ends in the village of Ramalhal.
The trail’s rich history and culture invite visitors to explore the region of Cortiça, heading toward Loureira, where the past and present go hand in hand toward a sustainable future.
After the visit, the trail leads hikers along a path flanked by holm oaks, kermes oaks, and rocky outcrops, toward the village of Relvas. After admiring the unique rural architecture, visitors head back toward Ramalhal.
Throughout the entire route, hikers can make a few stops to enjoy the architectural, industrial, rural, religious, and ethnographic heritage, as well as megalithic monuments with a history dating back some 5,000 years.
