Walk Monday 25 March 2019 : Rasmalho : CLOSED

Walk is now closed as we have enough people.

Yes, I know we did this in January, but our Canadian friends didn't...and this should be bee free and gives us the opportunity to eat outside at Ourique !

The first 15mins. or so is a little " off piste", but along an old overgrown track. Shorts are not advisable, unless you don't mind being scratched , but it does circumvent the need for any road-work. The rest of the walk is on good tracks, with a mixture of short(ish) ups and downs.

Directions: From Lagoa, drive west on the N125, over the bridge & turn right for Monchique , just before the turning to Portimao. Drive towards Monchique for 10 K until you come to Rasmalho. There is a cafe on the left called " Riba e Serra ". Please park on the right, just before the cafe, in a small clearing.

Duration : About 2 h 10 mins.

Degree of Difficulty ( scale 1:5) : 3.....Energetic......some steep hills, often with loose scree


Start :10.00 am.

Wear stout trainers/walking boots....a walking pole would be useful. Sunhats hopefully recommended, but some wet weather gear might come in handy.

Please note that the walk will be cancelled of the weather is poor. I shall put a note on this website at about 0830 that morning, 0900 at the latest.

All walks at your own risk.

There is no charge.
Please indicate below if you are intending to come and whether you want lunch. The winter walks were rather congested and we had to limit numbers to about 20.

Any questions, ring 282 380015, before 0900 or after 6pm .

Lunch ( optional) :we will have a short 5 mins drive to the Ourique cafe and hopefully be able to eat outside. cost will be 10€ to cover tip and contribution to Mike & Su's Supporting Families charity.
