Caretaker since 2020

Founder of group Hikers Portugal, Andreia has been the caretaker of Odeceixe » Aljezur section of the Fishermen’s Trail since 2020. Thank you so much for all the work you do to keep this trail in perfect conditions!

I’m a hiker. I’m adventurous. I’m a nature lover.
I arrived a little over a year ago to develop a professional project in the region and I fell in love with the Rota Vicentina. Today I walk every kilometer of this enchanted landscape of sea and countryside, full of romance and life stories … Over time, I learned that Rota Vicentina is much more than a network of walking trails. It is, above all, a large community that has defended a region for many decades and that every day is lived in an intense toil that culminates in small and big successes. And who doesn’t want to contribute to a tomorrow of small conquests and victories at a time when environmental awareness and sustainability are the greatest challenge for humanity? That’s why I stay here, for a better tomorrow!
