La Rambla de Montevideo

La Rambla is a 22 kilometer pedestrian boulevard / walkway along the Río de la Plata coast in Montevideo. There are lots of people biking, walking, running, and enjoying the outdoors along the Ramblas. Our hotel is one block from La Rambla and I've been jogging twice along the path. There are big tall markers every 500 meters to mark the distance so you know how far you've run.

Here's a photo looking towards a lighthouse along the route I jogged on Monday, our first day.

La Rambla reminds me of CE where we see lots of people participating in outdoor activities on the Shore Rd pathway, CELT trails, beaches, bike path and more.

Sunset along the Rambla route tonight. It sets a little after 6 p.m. which surprised me the first night because it seemed early for July but I forgot about season, winter! Our hotel is in the center of the buildings you can see in the distance.
