Puerto del Rosario walking project for older residents marks 20 years
A new edition of Allanando el Camino has been presented in Puerto del Rosario, with backpacks to be distributed to participants during walks.
Puerto del Rosario’s municipal walking project for older residents, Allanando el Camino, has marked its 20th anniversary with the presentation of a new edition at the capital’s Centro de Mayores on 11 November.
The council initiative offers older people in the municipality opportunities to exercise, enjoy nature and spend time with others. It began two decades ago with the aim of helping participants stay active and share experiences.
For the 2026 edition, participants will receive a backpack to carry their belongings. These will be distributed during the various outings and walks.
The council says the project promotes active ageing, personal independence and social participation, as well as helping to prevent unwanted loneliness.
