Among the topics covered were:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Wood selection criteria;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Ideal dimensions for boards and beams;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Ground fixing techniques;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Treatment methods that increase the durability of structures in environments with high rainfall and humidity.<\/p>\n<p>This sharing of technical knowledge strengthens cooperation between partners and contributes to greater efficiency and quality in the implementation of project actions. The result will be sustainable infrastructure that simultaneously supports the recovery of natural habitats and enhances the visitor experience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/en\/news\/internal-training-reinforces-techniques-for-building-footbridges-in-natural-areas\/foto-5-2-3-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-24453\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-24453\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-5-2.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/en\/news\/internal-training-reinforces-techniques-for-building-footbridges-in-natural-areas\/foto-4-3-3-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-24451\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-24451\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-4-3.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/en\/news\/internal-training-reinforces-techniques-for-building-footbridges-in-natural-areas\/foto-3-3-3-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-24449\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-24449\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-3-3.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/en\/news\/internal-training-reinforces-techniques-for-building-footbridges-in-natural-areas\/foto-2-3-2-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-24447\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-24447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Foto-2-3.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":24445,"template":"","class_list":["post-24456","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
