For 2026, the Montepio Meia Maratona de Cascais has been brought forward and will unfold over two days: 31 January and 1 February. The weekend opens with the Corrida das Crianças on Saturday, turning the Baía de Cascais into a fun, family-focused running playground. Sunday then belongs to the adults and older juniors, with the 21.1 km half marathon, 10 km and 5 km all setting off from the waterfront and following coastal roads that link the town centre with the scenic stretch towards Guincho. Gentle rolling terrain, sea views and smooth tarmac create a course that balances speed with scenery, making it appealing both to runners chasing times and those there for the experience. Combined with a compact race village on the bayfront and a relaxed winter-sun vibe, the event feels as much like a seaside festival as it does a race weekend.
Races
On Sunday, 1 February 2026 at 09:00, the Montepio Meia Maratona de Cascais (21,0975 km) starts in the Baía de Cascais, organised by HMS Sports Consulting and powered by Montepio Associação Mutualista. The certified coastal route along the Estrada do Guincho and back combines mild rollers, Atlantic views and big-race atmosphere in one of Portugal’s most popular winter half marathons.
Also on Sunday, 1 February 2026, the Corrida de 10 Km de Cascais sets off from the Baía de Cascais under the same HMS Sports organisation. This fast 10 km road race follows a shortened version of the half-marathon course along the Cascais seafront, ideal for runners chasing a sharp time with full big-event support.
The 5 Km Cascais is likewise held on 1 February 2026 in the Baía de Cascais, organised by HMS Sports Consulting as part of the Montepio Meia Maratona de Cascais weekend. Designed as a friendly, accessible distance, it gives walkers and runners a relaxed out-and-back coastal experience while still enjoying the same start-line buzz and finish-line party as the longer races.
