The Tagus Linear Park combines two different typologies of spaces: A single multifunctional area named ‘Praia Dos Pescadores’ (Fishermen’s Beach), set by the riverside within a former sand deposit, and 6 km of pedestrian trails associated with dirt roads, waterlines banks (streams and drainage ditches), which converge to Praia dos Pescadores, coming from urban and natural areas. The connection between the ‘beach’ and natural areas is made through a 700m long raised wooden path by which a Bird Observatory built from old pallets can be reached.
