Jim has offered to lead with assistance from Linda. It should be around 10kms, just over 2 hours. The track is fairly undulating, nothing (too!) steep, with minimal loose scree. Lovely countryside, plenty of orange groves, nice views from the top. Just one short steep uphill to warm us up near the start.

Start Time: 10:00 am at Snack Bar Casinhas ( 37.194065 N, -8.402917 W)

Directions: From CVO, drive to Silves and go over bridge, turn right. At the roundabout, follow the N124 in direction of Messines. After about 400m, almost opposite the Galp petrol station on your left, turn right on to " Turismo Rural". Follow this for about 2.5 kms, when you will see the Cafe Casinhas on your right.

The cafe is not open on Mondays so get a coffee on route if you need one. We will have to drive into Silves after the walk for refreshments.

Usual rules: all walks are at your own risk, bring a drink and wear suitable footwear. Numbers will be limited to 20 people. Contact number on the day is: 0044 796 0552618. Please add your name below if you would like to join us.

See you on Monday.

WALK IS NOW CLOSED

Hi, My cycling friend Ian asked if he could come on this walk and i arranged a lift for him with Graham and Ruth. I can now see that the walk is closed. I hope it’s ok for him to come along.
