WALK -MONDAY 13 MARCH 2017
RIBBA A TORRINHA, on the way to Monchique. Distance 10kms, approximately 2 1/2 hours. Meeting Point: Café Casa De Pasto Riba E Serra Time: 9.45am.
Russell and Linda have volunteered to guide this walk. There are a couple of steep climbs, and one short steep descent, therefore it is a grade 3 walk.
This is in very picturesque countryside in a remote area. There are beehives in the area and we have to walk close to one group of hives. The usual Geoff rules apply, wear suitable footwear, walk at your own risk etc. If you would like to join us please add your name below. Directions to meeting point: Follow the N125 towards Portimao then turn off and follow the signs for Monchique. At the roundabout take the left turning for Monchique (N266). At the village of Rasmalho you will see the Café Casa De Pasto Riba E Serra on your left. Park on the right-hand side of the road, opposite the café. The café is open for coffee and they also do a very traditional Portuguese lunch for anyone who wishes to join us after the walk, cost around 8.50 euros for 2 courses with drinks. We will drive up to the starting point of the walk which is around 3/4kms further along near the brown sign on the right Riba A Torrinha.
The phone contact on the day will be 0044 7960552618.

Another wonderful day of sunshine enjoyed by only 8 walkers as 7 people had to cancel at the last minute. 6 people also enjoyed a very nice lunch at O Cacador restaurant at Rasmalho. Big thanks to Ozzie for arranging the bargain meal at 7.50 euros each. Walkers were: David, Maike, Rose, Mary, Gill, Ozzie, Linda and Russell
