New Loulé walkway opens
The first stage of the Loulé coastal walkways has been opened by João Matos Fernandes, Minister of Environment and Climate Action.
The minister opened the new walkway, which has been designed as a means of encouraging environmental awareness in the Ria Formosa Natural Park, along a route between Quinta do Lago (Ludo) and Praia do Garrão which covers 4.85 kilometres and includes six resting spots.
The second phase of the project will see the city of Quarteira being connected to the route, increasing the walkway to 7.8 kilometres.
“Our aim is to be able to come on foot or by bicycle from the Vilamoura Marina to the outer perimeter of Faro Airport. This is our dream and we will definitely make it come true! ”, said the Mayor of Loulé, Vítor Aleixo.
