Walk : Monday 26 November 2012 : Ilha do Rosario

[Geoff]

PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE

By popular request, we have changed the clifftop walk to an old favourite, that we haven't done for 2 years!

Around the Ilha do Rosario , beautiful views of the river confluence of the Arade and the Odelouca. It should take about 2 hours & is easy(ish)......nearly all flat but there is a gentle hill to climb. Distance about 9km or 5 miles. It is similar to the "Sunflower Landscapes" walk or the Julie Stratham walk , but we will cut across the centre of the "island" to get magnificent views.

Directions: from CVO , cross the bridge into Silves & turn left on the R124towards Montchique/Portimao. After a little under 5 km you will see the Mira Rio cafe & restaurant on your left after a sharpish right hand bend. Parking is at the cafe , which is handy for a drink after!

Start at 1000.

Stout trainers/boots & a bottle of water suggested! Take your binoculars if you are a bird watcher. A walking pole is certainly useful......as might be some wet weather gear, but we won't be walking if it's really wet!

No charge of course. Hope to meet both new and returning walkers!

All walks are at your own risk.

Please indicate below if you can come. Phone on 282 380015 before 0900 or after 7pm if you need more info.

Well, the rain held off and we just had a slight dampness in the air , a dozen hearty souls braving the elements.
