Ponta de São Lourenço Trail Restricted for Nine Months for Works

The Ponta de São Lourenço Trail (PR8) will face restrictions starting September 30th due to requalification works.

The Ponta de São Lourenço Trail (PR8) will be subject to restrictions starting Wednesday, September 30th, for a minimum period of 270 days.

The requalification and improvement works, carried out by the Institute of Forests and Nature Conservation (IFCN), will necessitate the creation of small, signposted detours to ensure visitor safety.

The project represents an investment of €487,175.28, co-financed by the PRODERAM20/FEADER program, aiming to enhance the safety and usability of one of the region's key hiking routes.
