Location

Situated in the area of the Montargil Dam, in the municipality of Ponte de Sor, this leisure and bathing zone is located near the town of Montargil. Its placement takes advantage of the reservoir's vast water surface, providing an environment adjacent to the dam. The area where the project is being developed is locally known as "Praia dos Tesos" (Tesos Beach).

Vision for a Leisure Space

Montargil River Beach represents the creation of a new space dedicated to leisure and the enjoyment of the reservoir. The ongoing project aims to equip this area with infrastructures that will allow access to the water and the practice of land-based recreational activities. The creation of a sandy area and complementary facilities designed for visitor comfort and enjoyment is planned, including areas for games and relaxation near the water's edge.

The Relationship with the Reservoir

The great appeal of this location is its direct connection to the vast Montargil reservoir. The river beach is being developed to offer a safe and inviting access point to the reservoir's waters. One of the planned elements is a floating swimming pool, allowing visitors to enjoy bathing in a structure integrated into the reservoir itself, enhancing the aquatic experience in this natural setting.

The Natural Environment

The area surrounding Montargil River Beach is set within the region's characteristic natural environment, marked by tranquility and open spaces. The landscape near the dam offers a backdrop for those seeking moments of relaxation and contact with nature. The inclusion of pedestrian paths in the project allows for on-foot exploration of the water's proximity and local vegetation, contributing to a more complete experience of the location.
