WALK - MONDAY 23 MARCH 2026 - WALK CLOSED

[Linda and Russell]

Linda will be leading this walk. We head up through the pretty village of Figueira, through the Cork forest and out into the countryside via the orange groves. Then we loop back passing lots of grapevines, and ruined farmhouses. We head back via a cafe in the village where we can stop for refreshments before heading back to the cars via the river bank. The walk is around 8 kms, 2 hours and not too difficult. Please wear suitable footwear, bring a drink, no charge. We may have lunch at a restaurant near by after the walk.WE WALK PAST SOME BEE HIVES SO BE PREPARED.

Meeting time 10.00 am. Meeting point: Sociedade de Figuerense, Figueira. Directions: Drive west along the N125, pass the Alvor turning and Penina Golf. About 2kms further along go under a footbridge and immediately turn right at the sign: "Polidisportivo". Park just after the social club entrance. There is no cafe at the start of the walk. Please indicate below if you would like to join us for the walk. We will decide on the day regarding lunch. Contact on the day is 0044 7960552618.
