WALK - MONDAY 6 JUNE 2022 - RIBBEIRO DAS CANAS

Post by Linda and Russell »

Linda and Russell will be leading this walk. The walk is 9kms, just over 2 hours. There is one gradual uphill section but the rest is fairly flat, therefore quite a moderate walk. There is a possible muddy area which is overgrown so wear waterproof footwear. We walk beside the river, then gradually climb up a narrow path to join wide tracks at the top. Later we head down a secluded valley beside a small baragem. There should be water for the dogs to cool off in the baragem and in the river near the start and end. The usual rules apply: wear suitable footwear, bring a drink, poles if you have them, no charge, walk at your own risk.

The walk will start at 9.30am. Meet at Cafe Casa De Pasto Riba E Serra at Rasmalho.
Directions: follow the N125 towards Portimao then turn off and follow the signs for Monchique. At the Roundabout take the left turning for Monchique (N266). After about 3kms 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.
We will drive to the start of the walk which is about 2kms further along the road.

The cafe should be open for drinks at the start and end of the walk.

Please add your name below if you would like to join us on the walk. The contact number on the day is 0044 796 0552618. Thank you Linda and Russell

We were lucky to get some cloud and a nice cooling breeze.  Just a few scratched legs from the overgrown section.
