About the event

Welcome to the Land of Giants! This unique and indescribable experience begins with a long journey from the highest point in mainland Portugal to the Atlantic Ocean in Nazaré. It is a path of astonishment, of encounter, and of contact with traditions, but also of faith, regardless of belief. In the winter season, nature can be harsh, but thanks to technological advances in protective materials, we can now explore further and challenge ourselves in extreme situations. Join us on this journey and discover what it means to be a giant.

Course highlights

303km, 11 222 D +, 74 Hrs Two mandatory conditions for becoming a giant are having a real capacity for autonomy, being self-sufficient, and knowing how to navigate the entire route using GPS equipment. Self-sufficiency , let's define it as the distance you will have to travel between life bases without any support from the organization. Assistance, premeditated, outside the life bases will be penalized with disqualification. There are 6 bases located in strategic locations to allow you comfort and safety. A good pace management will allow you to do the entire route with good rest times. The life bases are spaces where the organization will provide reception and comfort solutions so that you can travel safely and peacefully. These spaces are exclusively for the use of participants and support staff.
