The Ronqueira River Beach underwent a thorough upgrading in its accessibility.

The banks of the Ronqueira River Beach invite visitors to relax, but they’re also a great starting point for discovering the flora and fauna of the Alva River. Here, you might come across pond skaters, bees, kingfishers, crows, foxes, frogs, toads, and several fish species.

In addition to its charming natural surroundings, this river beach stands out for its strong focus on accessibility, offering all the necessary conditions to welcome people with reduced mobility or visual and/or hearing impairments.
