São Silvestre de Mozelos is a late-season road race held in the parish of Mozelos, in Santa Maria de Lamas near Aveiro in northern Portugal. Runners cover 9 kilometres on paved roads through the local streets, and a separate caminhada walking category takes part on the same morning so that families and less experienced participants can join in. The event follows the São Silvestre tradition of a festive December race that closes out the running year, and it is organised with the support of the local community. Full race-day timings, registration details and route information are published on the organiser's page.
