IFCN closes Vereda do Areeiro for six days

dnoticias.pt13 September 2026 at 17:25

The Vereda do Areeiro to Pico Ruivo will be closed for six days during the month of September, due to already scheduled work. The closure takes place in two periods: between the 14th and 17th of September, and then on the 21st and 22nd of the same month. The closure covers only the section between Miradouro da Pedra Rija and Pico Ruivo. During those days, it will not be possible to complete the full route between Pico do Areeiro and Pico Ruivo. The article does not specify who is carrying out the work or the type of scheduled interventions.

Why this matters

Hikers and tourists planning to visit Madeira in September should avoid scheduling hikes on the Vereda do Areeiro during these dates, at risk of being prevented from completing the route between Pico do Areeiro and Pico Ruivo. This closure follows an already scheduled maintenance work calendar on this iconic trail of the island.

Illegal immigrants use Portugal as secondary route to "make the leap" to Ireland

João Ribeiro, deputy national director of the PSP and head of the National Foreigners and Borders Unit, revealed that Portugal is being used as a secondary route by illegal immigrants, mainly to continue on to Ireland. In statements to the Portuguese news agency, he explained that irregular immigrants arrive in major Portuguese cities by train and bus, with some intending to only move on to other countries. In just one year, a special international operation at Portela airport detected more than 200 people heading to Ireland.

Gulf countries' meeting on Monday will not lead to reopening of the Strait of Hormuz

The Gulf countries, Iran and Iraq meet on Monday in Oman to discuss the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's main oil and gas shipping routes. Tehran said the meeting demonstrates "good intention" and that a provisional mechanism will be presented to manage ship transit through Iranian and Omani waters, with a joint maritime corridor and a plan to remove mines. However, Iran confirmed that the agreement with Oman does not mean the reopening of the strait, as it depends on the United States resuming its commitments. Bahrain has already announced it will not participate in the meeting, considering that regional security "cannot be preserved through a policy of appeasement".

The "Serrenhos" and their Origins

This article explores the historical origins of the inhabitants of the Serra Algarvia, known as "Serrenhos", tracing them back to the Muslim invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in the 8th century. The author explains that the Berbers, coming from North Africa, were relegated to the poorest and most mountainous lands of the Algarve, while the Arabs occupied the urban centers and the best agricultural lands. Over the centuries, the Serrenhos remained isolated in their villages, preserving physical and linguistic characteristics that still today reflect their Berber origins, including dialectal expressions with clear roots in the Arabic language. The author also shares personal memories from the 1940s and examples of local expressions in decline.

Irregular immigrants increase at train and bus arrivals

The Public Security Police warned of an increase in the number of irregular immigrants arriving in Portugal by train and bus, with a focus on the Lisbon and Porto metropolitan areas. These citizens travel from other European Union member states, taking advantage of the Schengen area to change territory after unsuccessful attempts to regularize their status in other European countries. According to the director of UNEF, Portugal functions as a transit platform, not as a final destination, with many intending to move on to Scandinavia, Poland, the Netherlands, or Germany. The PSP guarantees that the mobile control device at stations and bus terminals will be maintained to monitor these secondary immigration flows.
