List of hiking trails in Portugal

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Portugal there are a large number of hiking trails in all regions of the country and its island regions Madeira and the Azores .

Signage system for hiking trails in Portugal

Above all, the long-distance hiking trails, the GR ( Grande Rota , German: Great Route) are known nationwide . In addition to the long-distance hiking trails, there are a large number of shorter, partly themed hiking trails, which are designated with PR ( Pequena Rota , German: small route) and which are less than 30 km long or do not exceed a day's hike. They are all qualified and registered by the Federação de Campismo e Montanhismo de Portugal (FCMP), the national umbrella organization. In addition to their simple numbering, they also have a thematically and spatially meaningful name.

In addition to PR, there is local PL ( Pedestres Locais , German for example: local footpaths), a category created in 2006 for paths that lead completely or predominantly through one or neighboring localities, i.e. are meant as local tours. These are not numbered by the FCMP and are therefore not listed here.

List of long-distance hiking trails (GR)

Nine long-distance hiking trails with 29 sections through 27 districts are certified by the FCMP, with a total length of 1012.9 km. (As of October 14, 2013)

In addition to the official number of the route, the list also gives its name with further information, the length and the individual sections by district ( concelhos ).

GR 11

The GR 11 is called Caminho do Atlântico (English: Way of the Atlantic ). It is largely identical to the E9

GR 11.1

The GR 11.1 has its own GR number as a branching section, but belongs to the system of the GR 11. It bears the name Vereda de Santo André (English: Path from Santo André or St. Andrew).

  • Length: 31 km
  • Sections by district:
    • the route is entirely in the Grândola district

GR 11.2

The GR 11.2 has its own GR number, but belongs to the advanced system of the GR 11 as a further section of the E9 . It bears the name Caminho de Santiago / Troço Barcelos - Ponte de Lima (English: Way of St. James / Section Barcelos - Ponte de Lima), as a section from Barcelos to Ponte de Lima of the Caminho Português , the Portuguese Way of St. James .

  • Length: 50 km
  • Sections by district:
    • the route is entirely in the district of Barcelos

GR 12

The GR 12 is called Rota da Idanha , after the historical place name Idanha , which can also be found in the name of today's Idanha-a-Nova district. The GR 12 partially coincides with the European long-distance hiking trail E7 .

  • Length: 80 km
  • Sections by circles:

A recognition of extensions of the GR 12 along the Tagus River and the E7 by the FCMP is in progress in sections.

GR 14

The GR 14 is called Rota dos Vinhos da Europa (English: Route of European Wines). The name of the path refers to the landscape of the Alto Douro , the oldest protected wine-growing region in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001 . This “Route of European Wines” is a loose amalgamation of tourist routes in wine-growing areas from Vila Nova de Gaia to Strasbourg .

Note: the GR 14 is shorter than the necessary 30 km; as part of a larger route, it was nevertheless included as a GR

GR 22

The GR 22 is called Rota das Aldeias Históricas and connects the eponymous historic villages, which are grouped together as Aldeias Históricas de Portugal . It is the longest hiking trail in Portugal.

GR 23

The GR 23 bears the name Percurso descoberta (German: about: Discovery Route), based on the era of the Portuguese Empire that began here in 1415 . It is the only official long-distance hiking trail in the Algarve . In addition, there is another, more well-known long-distance hiking trail, the 300 km long Via Algarviana . However, this only came about as a merger of various hiking trails in the hinterland of the Algarve and so far does not have an FCMP number.

  • Length: 45 km
  • Sections by circles:
    • the trail is entirely in the Tavira district

GR 25.1

The GR 25.1 bears the name Caminho Transfronteiriço Jacobeu Português (German approximately: Portuguese part of the cross-border Way of St. James) and is part of a long-distance hiking trail GR 25 that has yet to be created.

  • Length: 41.6 km
  • Sections by circles:

GR 26

The GR 26 is called Terras de Sicó (English: Land of Sicó) and refers to the Serra do Sicó mountain range , which rises up to 553 meters and through which the path leads.

  • Length: 30 km
  • Sections by circles:
    • the route lies entirely in the Pombal district

Madeira

In the autonomous region of Madeira , the hiking trails are numbered without an abbreviation for circles, and on the main island of Madeira without an island abbreviation. On the island of Porto Santo only two hiking trails are certified by the FCMP. To distinguish it from the routes on Madeira, the numbering is preceded by the abbreviation PS.

Since the short hiking trails (PR) in continental Portugal are led with circle abbreviations and in the Azores with island abbreviations, the hiking trails in Madeira can be registered with the FCMP without abbreviations. This means that every Portuguese hiking trail is clearly identified with its FCMP numbering.
