Are the boardwalks/path on this section of the Senda Litoral completed now?
Don’t hold your breath
.
I would be very, very surprised if the powers that be even think about attempting to continue building a continual boardwalk from the Neiva to Viana.
Sure, the maps show a dotted line, but the practicalities on the ground are a completely different story.
If you are an intrepid, experienced hiker, who doesn’t mind wading through thick sand dunes, and fording across deep streams waist high, you can certainly do it. And I would love to hear from those who have.
The board walk tends to disappear suddenly in coastal storms.
Some of the main beaches have board walks from them off to the left and right, but they do not continue to the next beach, so you find yourself stranded in the middle of a sand dune, wondering whether to go forward or backtracking several kilometres, out to the main road, and back in again to the next beach resort.
Would love for someone to reply that there is now a boardwalk all the way!
