Walk 23 January 2012 ; Ferraguedo

Post by Geoff »

Hi all
We have a guest leader for this walk, Ray having kindly volunteered.

Meet in carpark at bottom of castle in Ferraguedo at 1000 for a walk of just over 2 hours. Stout trainers/walking boots/poles recommended. No charge, of course.

Directions: from Carvoiero, drive on the "out" road past Intermarche and turn left at roundabout signposted Sesmarias/Ferraguedo before you get to Lagoa. Follow road through Sesmarias to Ferraguedo. As you come down the hill , you will see the old castle on the left. Park in large carpark on left at the bottom of this hill.

If weather deteriorates , bring wetweather gear or ring before 0930 on 282 380015.
Please indicate if likely to be coming, all welcome.

Hello Geoff:

We will be arriving February 1st (for a couple of months) and are planning to make your walk on the 6th. A coastal walk would be fine with us!

Dick and Fran.

Great walk this morning! Really enjoyed the walk, the weather, the fabulous scenery and most of all the company of like-minded people. Makes a change from walking on my own out here.
Thanks to Ray for leading it and Geoff for organising this group.

We had a good turnout of 18 for Ray's walk, lovely weather and great views from the cafe.....in fact so many, I had to take 2 photos to get everyone in! Nice to see so many returning faces, as well as new ones.
