Walk 27 February 2023 : Zabel. CLOSED.

Post by Geoff »

Walk is now closed as we have enough people.

Used to be the O Guerreiro. Nice restaurant. It's a relatively flat walk, a few gradients, but no hills. Bit too much tarmac, but compensated by lovely country views, and orange orchards . There is about 50m on the N124, so take great care there.

Duration: About 2 h 15 m

Difficulty:As it's pretty flat, say 2 .

Start : 1000...but if you want coffee and to order lunch, please be there by 0945 at latest.

GPS : 37.2738947,-8.3141676,605

Directions : Drive from CVO to Silves, go over the bridge and turn right and follow the N124 for about 14 kms , passing signs for Nora and Benaciate (on the right) and Torres/Corte (on your left). Watch out for the Tasca da Zabel , on your right.It's on the right. Park at side of road or in layby opposite.

Lunch (Optional): The standard menu is now 10€, which includes the usual bread/olives/wine/pudding/coffee...with tip etc assume 11€ or 12€.

It is ESSENTIAL that you indicate below if you can come and whether you want lunch, as numbers for walk will be limited to 20

Walking boots/stout trainers recommended and walking poles.

Usual caveats - all walks are at your own risk, and we do not walk if it is pouring with rain...no charge, of course...I will endeavour to put any cancellation note on this site by 0830 on the day of the walk.

Any questions , please ask (or ring 282 380015 preferably between 1800-1900 or 8am to 9am .
