Serra d'Ossa Boardwalks

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Serra d’Ossa Walkways run along the verdant valley of the Ribeira do Monte Virgem, along steep schist cliffs, between the village of Aldeia da Serra and the imposing Church of Nossa Senhora do Monte da Virgem, preceded by a long (and steep) staircase with approximately 300 steps.
Although the Serra d’Ossa Walkways only opened in April 2021, they are already one of the must-see places in the Alentejo for all nature lovers. After all, walking along them allows you to discover a very different side of this region in the south of Portugal, more associated with vast plains than with steep cliffs.
The Serra d’Ossa Walking Trail is only 1.5 km long (3 km round trip), which makes it a great walk to do with children. Not only because it is relatively short, but above all because it does not have significant differences in height, with the exception of the section of the staircase that precedes the Church of Nossa Senhora do Monte da Virgem.
