PR6 - Agueda Trail - Hiking Águeda
I confess I'm still wondering what was the purpose of creation of this trail. I have the warning: too little trail recommended. After news of the success of the opening track of Aveiro in the past last weekend, was bitten by curiosity, I decided to try in spite of always standing behind when the paths are presented very urban. It was a loss of time. So I lost the will and not completed.
Come to the facts. The trail begins near the River Agueda in a space more or less pleasant. The problem is that I had no idea that the river is so dirty. Black water, black mud, black stones, a very unpleasant sight. A few steps later, along the shore, a huge puddle of standing water with a nauseating odor, quite simply disgusting.
Waste from the stage
A little more and we are in the stadium. Here there are piles of garbage to follow the trail. The plates disappear but there is plenty to go. Moto4 run into each one and motocross bikes that although moving slowly let the air a poisonous cloud. Sight is one or another old house with some interest and that I love. We must also say that the paved road is dangerous with no space for pedestrians but it is exactly here that goes by rail.
Bridge of Violantes
After this road we arrive at a picnic area is located where one of the major points of interest: a point like "Himalaya" is to have some fun and see some guys scared!
But the negative surprises do not stop here. In the other side, a few meters after the bridge we were interrupted by an owner of the land through which the rail. It said that the path is and has always been along the river and that the margin there is for a maximum of two meters from the river. It can therefore not pass through the path that is already trampled and where are the signs of walking but by the margin that appears full of trees and undergrowth. The woman who gets along with the camera and who made this journey over the knee, had enough of listening. Just to warn you I go there to spend a lot of people.
There is much more to tell. The rest of the river path has on the left field and plants on the right. This is definitely not a trail hiking with the same quality Pateira From the Agueda . Probably a visit to the cemetery where the rail passes, inside the city, would have been much more advantageous. It is a photograph of a detail of the entry.

Now therefore, the route is not properly advised and hopefully this is just the poor relation of all the other recently opened, or opening a.
The point is that the cameras seem to suffer all the same: the need to show work that is "cost" is. But if you want to show, and here we are speaking merely of walking trails in the area, do it in a focused and well made. The "cost" referred to here is not lack of clarification and serious agreements with people who are otherwise covered by the project as was the case that lady, the owner of land approached the camera for you putting it as a place of passage this route. The attitude of this lady honestly just made me boil in little water because if the camera failed is that it should go up because if you do not have to preach the same sermon to very good people, as stated in the post. Another thing that touches me the thought of pure irony that I feel like to have is that as trees and corn, and the earth and the birds, the grass and the river, not yet speak our language perguto me how you like the lady said we adivinhassemos we were on the right track BUT within private property?!?!? No comments ... There are signs for it! They say PRIVATE PROPERTY and all!
The chambers and the parish councils have to learn: they are working for the people (and should work with the people but go ...) and can not give half-terms, those that "hey this is not 100% sure but it looks for now is so if anyone raise questions we arrange anything to calm them, well ... a Xanax or something.
