Hi Sonja, while the walk from Pena to the Moorish Castle is relatively short, the walk from Moorish to Quinta da Regaleira is a bit challenging, although not impossible. It’s called the Percurso de Seteais Trail. They rate the hiking trail as challenging, and it takes a minimum of 1 hour and 20-30 minutes (at a decent pace) to complete.

You can see a map of the walk here: https://bit.ly/3EKAMkj and another map here: https://www.parquesdesintra.pt/media/pspaaztf/brochura_percursos_pedestres.pdf

I’d instead recommend taking the bus up to Pena, hike to Moorish, and then hop on the #434 bus to go down to Sintra Vila (National Palace). From the National Palace, it’s only a 15 minutes walk to Quinta da Regaleira. And it’s a lovely walk through the little town. Hope this helps!

Is there any chance we can walk from the Moorish Castle to Quinta da Regaleira? If so how long is it and is it hard or easy?

Ideally I would like to take a bus or Uber up to Peña Castle hike to Moorish Castle hike to Quinta Da Regaleira and hike back to town.
