Se procura aquele Algarve que ainda se sente virgem e selvagem, a Praia de Vale dos Homens, perto do Rogil, no concelho de Aljezur, é o seu destino.
Mas prepare-se: o acesso não se faz por um caminho qualquer. É através de uma imponente escadaria de madeira com quase 300 degraus que se desce até este areal dourado.
Como diz o ditado, “para baixo todos os santos ajudam”, mas é na subida que o corpo sente o esforço.
Felizmente, a autarquia pensou nisso e instalou bancos estratégicos onde pode descansar enquanto enche os pulmões com o perfume da maresia e das estevas.
Ao chegar lá abaixo, a recompensa é absoluta.
Rodeada por enormes arribas de xisto que parecem muralhas naturais, esta praia no concelho de Aljezur é o refúgio perfeito para quem foge das multidões.
Quando a maré vaza, o cenário transforma-se e surgem pequenas piscinas entre as rochas, ideais para explorar com calma.
É um daqueles recantos onde o tempo parece parar e onde a natureza manda em tudo.
Embora o acesso exija algum preparo físico, a vista panorâmica durante o percurso e o sossego que encontra no areal fazem de Vale dos Homens uma experiência obrigatória.
É o Algarve no seu estado mais puro: exigente, deslumbrante e profundamente revigorante.
Davos, Switzerland (dpa) – German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has blasted the European Parliament for referring the contested EU free trade deal with four countries from the South American Mercosur bloc to court.
“I deeply regret that the European Parliament has put another obstacle in our way,” Merz told political and business leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday. “But rest assured, we will not be stopped. The Mercosur deal is fair and balanced. There is no alternative to it if we want to have higher growth in Europe.”
Merz said he expects the trade deal to be implemented “provisionally” despite the Parliament’s challenge.
The European Parliament voted on Wednesday to have the Mercosur trade deal, which was signed last week following decades of painstaking negotiations, reviewed by the European Court of Justice (ECJ).
Waiting for the court’s opinion could significantly delay the ratification process for the agreement with Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. It is unclear how long it will take for the judges at the ECJ in Luxembourg to submit their assessment, but previous assessments took between 16 and 26 months.
The agreement, which aims to remove trade barriers and customs duties and boost the exchange of goods and services, would create one of the largest free trade zones in the world. (22 January)
Strasbourg, France – Several thousand European farmers protested in the French city of Strasbourg on Tuesday against the European Union’s free trade deal with countries in the Latin American Mercosur bloc.
Around 5,000 protesters and several hundred tractors gathered in the city, according to local officials, where the European Parliament is holding a plenary session this week.
EU lawmakers are to decide on Wednesday if they want to seek an opinion from the European Court of Justice (ECJ) on whether the contested Mercosur agreement is compatible with EU law, which could delay the ratification process.
The free trade agreement was signed in Paraguay last weekend and still has to be approved by the European Parliament.
With their protest, the farmers want to keep up the pressure on EU decision-makers. They fear disproportionate competition from cheap imports from South America.
Protesters lit smoke bombs and held up placards with slogans such as “Von der Leyen go home,” directed at European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
The demonstration caused major traffic disruption in Strasbourg, with several roads blocked. (January 20)
