New marking in Porto Covo and Vila Nova de Milfontes

2 reading time

We have made changes to the signage on the first two northern sections of the Fishermen's Trail, in Porto Covo and Vila Nova de Milfontes.

As part of the project ‘Open Doors: Stabilization of the Cliffs of Zambujeira do Mar Beach and Portinho de Porto Covo,’ boardwalks were built in Porto Covo. The Porto Covo Parish Council itself has developed two Small Routes in this area.

In our ongoing effort to continuously improve the trail routes, we have chosen to modify the routes of two sections in the Fishermen’s Trail.
