EXTRA WALK AT TWO RIVERS, THURS 14th MARCH
Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2019 6:16 pm
Meet: Mia Rio Restaurant Time: 10:00am Thursday 14th March
This is a familiar walk by the confluence of the Arade and the Odelouca around the Ilha de Rosario with beautiful views and bird watching opportunities. Distance about 9km, approximately 2hours, depending on stops. It is similar to the "Sunflower Landscapes" walk or the Julie Stratham walk, but with an different part to include an uphill stretch, therefore a grade 2, slightly 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.
