Porto Alegre - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
We hear about people getting mugged in our neighborhoods, but I have never seen it of felt uncomfortable outside. Neighborhoods are hilly and add a difficulty to your run or bike ride. Some major roads have dedicated bike lanes. On Sundays they open up some bus lanes to recreation and they completely close a road that runs along the river for a flatter terrain. - Apr 2025
