Re: Walk February 25, Rocha Delica Trail

As for : Geoff likes to post them, That's rather a strong way of puting it,but I don't mind ...

Walk Monday 6 May:Silves Enxerim/Windmill/Eucalyptos Woods
Bit like London buses, you wait for one new walk, and here's another.....actually, it's a new interpretaion of an old faithful. For those that know the usual approaches to the Silves windmill, this walk is from Enxerim and scales the eastern side of the hill. It involves crossing ( & recrosing) a st...

Walk Monday 29 April 2013 : Pedreira/Lavada/Barragem
Yes, I know it's very early to publicise this, but it's a new walk and I want to give details whilst it's still fresh in the mind! It's quite a gentle walk, about 2 hours 20 mins, of which half is dead flat along the lavadas. There are some slopes on good tracks leading up to the barragem and there ...

Re: Walk 18 February 2013 ; where ?..Aguas Bellas
The weather held, and 18 of us, plus a friendly husky dog, completed the trail in just under 2 h 45 m.....a small departure from our old trail being necessary as a local landowner had ploughed up the path & erected a dam to keep people out! We welcomed back some old friends ( & thanks Janet & John f...

Re: Walk 18 February 2013 ; where ?
Following the avalanche of ideas, decision is : Aguas Bellas! Please note that this is quite a long and strenuous walk! A circular walk of 2.5 hours or so ,(actually, 2 hours 45 minutes last time) ,north of Silves around Aguas Bellas through interesting countryside, with some small streams. The walk...

Well, having laid this walk on for Bruce's training benefit, guess who forgot about it & didn't turn up?
