Two nice walks to conclude our walking season. On Thursday 13th, Willie & Carol, Graham & Ruth & Gareth & Erica enjoyed a nice walk to and from Odiaxere followed by lunch at Choupama on the N125. This restaurant is renowned for its suckling pig but five of us had Chicken Piri Piri and one had stew! ...

We have interest for both the 13th and the 17th June so let us walk on both days. Join us if you can. WALK ON THURSDAY 13th JUNE: ODIAXERE This is an old favourite and a very popular flat walk starting and returning to the nice wee town of Odiaxere. Degree of Difficulty (scale 1:5), is a 1; easy; th...

Carol & I are planning to come out to Carvoeiro on the 12th June, returning to UK on the 19th.

Is there any interest in a walk (and lunch of course) on the 13th or 17th or 18th June?

What a really nice walk today with a nice bunch of people! Willie & Carol, Mike, Graham, Ruth & Liz, Graeme & Marian, Inge & Rude. We did the familiar local walk for the first time in reverse and even included a detour to Battleship Rock. Good news is the food/drink shack at Albandeira Beach has now...

On Thursday 25th April we will do the Porches to Albandeira walk, a very good local walk to Carvoeiro. This is a superb walk of great variety, starting off through a hamlet, then crossing the dunes, then through a valley to the cliffs between Marinha and Albandeira Beaches then back through the vall...

Willie & Carol and our two friends Liz & Steve. Walk and lunch.

Is there any interest in going on organised local walks on the 25th April and 2nd May. If so I will put two local walks together, plus lunch of course! Register your interest.

Not Willie & Carol, and friends.

A truly lovely walk in the sun today at “Two Rivers” but going over the top and with the slight diversion to see the view back to Silves. Fifteen people participated: Willie & Tim, Frank & Iva, Terry & Barbara, Rod & Gail, Sue & Steve, Sandy, Noel & Trish and Andrew & Diane. Carol & Kath joined us f...

There have been a few walks here in the past few weeks so I have decided we will do a variation and 'go over the top' - there is a steady walk uphill on a road near the start but the views at the top are stunning and well worth it. Still a Cat 2 walk and relatively easy.

A belated report on our Odiaxere Walk. There were eleven of us: Willie & Carol, Rod & Gail, Frank & Iva, Karen & Caroline, David & Mieke & Anne. The weather was perfect for walking and we did the walk in 2hrs 10 mins. The last bit along the levada is still blocked off so if you are planning to do th...

Meet: Mia Rio Restaurant Time: 10:00am Thursday 14th March This is a familiar walk by the confluence of the Arade and the Odelouca around the Ilha de Rosario with beautiful views and bird watching opportunities. Distance about 9km, approximately 2hours, depending on stops. It is similar to the "Sunf...

This is the first of the extra Thursday walks at Odiaxere in the absence of Geoff. Thurs 7th March. Degree of Difficulty ( scale 1:5) : It is a 1, easy, without doubt and there are bird watching opportunities at the river. Directions: Drive to Lagoa and turn left on the N125 until you get to Odiaxer...
