Posted: Wed Jan 23, 2013 7:19 pm
This is a new walk, which some of us did a recce on a couple of weeks ago.
It's about 2 hours 15 minutes , and has quite a long climb in the early stages,(about ten/fifteen minutes) up some scree, and is quite steep in places ; but after that the paths are good and there is a gentle descent, along with some lovely views. Cafe does coffee and beer at 80cents!
Walking boots or stout trainers are recommended, along with walking poles.....and a hat and water.
If it's wet, we won't be going.....but bring some wet weather gear in any case!
Tel 282 380015 if you need more info, preferably between 0830/0930 and 1700/1900......before 0915 on the day!
As usual, all at your own risk, and no charge.
Start : 1000
Directions:
From CVO, go to Silves and cross the bridge.
Turn right on the N124 , and bear right over the next roundabout in the direction of Messines.
Go past the Galp petrol station , on the left , until, after about 1.5kms from the bridge, you turn left almost opposite the residential guest House Vila Sodre.
Almost immediately, turn right, and park after about 100m, just before the Cafe Cantinho do Enxerim.
IF you go over the bridge on the N124, you have gone too far!
Please indicate below if you can come.
