アルブフェイラドアラデのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

素晴らしい、印象的なダムです。

The 246-meter-long and 50-meter-high dam was built between 1944 and 1956. A turbine used to generate electricity there, but it is probably out of service now.

The reservoir is surrounded by green hills and plantations, with the blue of the water contrasting with the green of the vegetation, forming a very beautiful sight.

It's impossible to miss this dam: the enormous stone and cement wall in the middle of the mountains invites you to stop for a moment and admire its grandeur. There's a path below, from where you can see the massive structure at river level, and you can also visit it from above, revealing sensational panoramas of the cliffs, the reservoir, and the surrounding greenery.

Nice walk, but intensive

The Funcho Dam is located in the municipality of Silves (Portugal) and is fed by the Arade River . The dam is located upstream of the Arade Dam . The construction of this dam was completed in 1993 and its main purpose is to irrigate the agricultural lands of the region . The surface area of ​​the hydrographic basin is 200 km² , with a useful capacity of 42.75 million cubic metres in the reservoir .

Sometimes a bit hidden between bushes, but really authentic history

The dam is impressive. A natural mid point of this tour from Guia (Bikesul) and back.
