WALK - MONDAY 29 JANUARY 2018 - ILHA DE ROSARIO
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 11:54 am
Meet: Mia Rio Restaurant Time: 10:00am
This is a walk by the confluence of the Arade and the Odelouca. Around the Ilha de Rosario with beautiful views. Distance about 9km, approximately 2 1/4 hours. It is similar to the "Sunflower Landscapes" walk or the Julie Stratham walk, but with an added part to include an uphill stretch, therefore a grade 2.5, energetic.
Directions: from CVO, cross the bridge into Silves & turn left on the N124 towards Monchique/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 café. You can also take the N124 from Portimao to Silves and the café is 5km on the right.
Stout trainers/boots & a bottle of water suggested! Take your binoculars if you are a bird watcher. A walking pole is certainly useful. All walks at your own risk, no charge. We will not be walking in pouring rain and any cancellation will be posted by 8:30am on the day.
The restaurant should be open for refreshments at the start and end of the walk. They also do a set menu within our 10 euro budget, including tips etc. for anyone wishing to join us for lunch.
Please put your name down if you would like to join the walk and also indicate if you are staying for lunch. Thank you Linda. Contact on the day: 0044 796 0552618
