The next volunteer action for the maintenance of the Via Algarviana will take place on February 12, in sector 9 – São Bartolomeu de Messines a Silves. The meeting point will be at the primary school in Vale Fuzeiros, at 9 am.
This action arises from the need to keep the route well signposted and to involve the community in the activities of Via Algarviana, thus fostering a greater connection to the project.
All those interested in contributing with your help can use the following contacts to register for the activity: Liliana Bom e-mail – [email protected] or telephone 289 412 959.
The Via Algarviana II project has 1,4 million euros and benefits from the co-financing of 950 euros from the PO Algarve 21, a European fund of the QREN. The National contribution will be of 512 thousand euros shared by Almargem, Autarquias, ATA and ERTA.
A Via Algarviana it is a long-distance walking route (300 km), classified as Grande Route (GR13). It starts in Alcoutim, next to the Guadiana, and ends at Cape S. Vicente, in Vila do Bispo, passing through the mountains of Caldeirão and Monchique.
It crosses above all forest areas and villages in the interior of the Algarve, where many of the rural traditions that the project intends to make known still persist.
