WALK - MONDAY 26 OCTOBER 2026 - OURIQUE BARAGEMS

[Linda and Russell]

Linda & Russell will be leading this walk. We head off into the quiet, remote hills and around a few small baragems. Mostly good tracks but a small section is a bit over grown. There are quite a few ups and downs especially at the beginning so the walk is quite strenuous. About 9 kms and takes around 2 1/2 hours.

Meeting Point: Restaurant Ourique. The cafe is closed at the start but please arrive ready to start the walk at 10.00am.

Directions: Drive to Lagoa and turn left on the N125. Drive to the the Portimao/Monchique exit and follow the N124 directions Monchique/Silves. At the roundabouts keep right and follow the signs for Silves. The restaurant is on the right side of the road on a sharp bend before Odelouca. Please park just before the restaurant.

The restaurant will be open for lunch for those who wish to join us for lunch. The set menu does not include drinks so the bill is usually a little more about 18 euros with a tip.

Usual rules: walk at your own risk, bring a pole if you use one, bring a drink and no charge.

Please add your name below if you wish to join the walk and if you would like to stay for lunch.
