On August 13th, all roads lead to Janeiro! The Grupo Desportivo Tigres do Zêzere is back with another edition of its monthly hiking series — this time with a very special proposal: a Night Hike that invites you to explore history, nature, and local heritage through the “Rota dos Januários”.
This 7 km walk, accessible to all fitness levels, offers a unique route between the Schist Villages of Janeiro de Cima and Janeiro de Baixo, including the iconic crossing of the Zêzere River — a symbolic gesture that revives the ancient connections between communities on both riverbanks.
Beyond physical activity, this hike is a moment of leisure, a reconnection with the surrounding natural landscape, and a celebration of the region’s intangible cultural heritage.
Registrations are now open through the sports group, and early participants will receive exclusive gifts (limited to available stock). The organisers also promise surprises along the way.
Come discover them — and don’t forget to book your stay at bookinxisto.com to explore the very best the region has to offer.
