The XIV International Ascent of the Rio Arade in Canoeing will take place on the 8th of October. The competition, promoted by the municipalities of Silves, Lagoa and Portimão, and logistically by the Clube Naval de Portimão (CNP), has the support of the Portuguese Canoeing Federation and ARCA (Algarve Regional Canoeing Association).

Both depart from the riverside area of Portimão, next to the Clube Naval.
The route will be done in calm and shallow waters, influenced by the tidal current.
