Other questions
The event is scheduled for Tuesday 8 December 2026 in Praia de Santa Cruz, on the Lisbon coast of Portugal.
Yes. The 6 km Caminhada is a non-competitive walk, so it suits families, beginners and anyone who prefers to cover the distance at a relaxed pace.
The event is based at Praia de Santa Cruz in the Lisboa region. The precise start line, finish area and assembly point are published in the organiser's race information, so check that page shortly before race day.
A 10 kilometre road race on the coast is a manageable step up for runners who have already covered 5 km comfortably, and the 6 km walk offers an even gentler introduction to a mass-participation event.
Early December on the Portuguese Atlantic coast is usually mild but changeable, with cool mornings, a chance of rain and often a sea breeze. Layers you can remove, plus a light waterproof, are sensible.
