It has been agreed that Tabua, in Ribeira Brava, is to have an outdoor gym and garden.
The municipality of Ribeira Brava will now proceed with the construction of a 340m² garden which will contain various bio-healthy fitness equipment for everyone to use. There will be no time restrictions or monthly fees, and the garden will be located in a scenic spot so that everyone can enjoy the surrounding landscape while taking part in some form of physical activity.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the Municipality of Ribeira Brava said that they recognise the importance of sport in society, and by creating a ‘gym park’ they will be promoting healthy lifestyles, the need for regular physical activity, and helping older members of society to remain active and enjoy life.
