This very hot weather situation will persist until the July 21st, with very high temperatures and low levels of humidity.<\/p>\n

So, this is a good time to pack your boots<\/b> and not go on walking or cycling adventures on the Rota Vicentina over the next few days!<\/b><\/p>\n

This warning is also reinforced by the Portuguese Government, which declared <\/span>rural fire risk alert<\/b><\/a>\u00a0until 11:59PM of July 21st\u00a0for Portugal, and the adoption of exceptional measures such as <\/span>prohibition of access to, circulation within and permanence in forest areas.<\/b>.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_row_inner unlock_row_content=”” row_height_percent=”0″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ back_color=”#eed1cf”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/1″][vc_btn link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fdre.pt%2Fdre%2Fen%2Fdetail%2Ftipo%2F8329-a-2022-185839005%20|target:_blank|” icon=”icon-arrow-blog” id=”wfmm9kpu4″]Check the official declaration of the rural fire risk alert situation for the coming days[\/vc_btn][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]The recommended walking and cycling season on the Rota Vicentina is from September to June.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this region, the summer is very warm and arid, and the full beaches do not allow you to enjoy the pure and wild beauty of SW. Accommodation generally requires a minimum stay of several days, prices are higher and many services have limited availability.<\/p>\n
