Walk Monday 23 February 2015 : Cafe Casinhas. CLOSED
Posted: Tue Jan 27, 2015 7:55 pm
It is becoming something of a tradition to end our series of walks with this one : we unfortunately go back to the UK on 28 February.
Track is fairly undulating, nothing (too!) steep, with minimal loose scree. The final descent is a bit steep. Lovely countryside, plenty of orange groves, nice views from the top.
Degree of difficulty : 2 to 3 Moderate , but Energetic in places!
Duration about 2 hours 15 mins.
Meet at Cafe Casinhas .
Departure : 1000
Directions:
From CVO, drive to Silves and go over bridge, turn right.
At the roundabout, follow the N124 in direction of Messines.
After about 400m, almost opposite the Galp petrol station on your left, turn right on to " Turismo Rural".
Follow this for about 2.5 kms, when you will see the Cafe Casinhas on your right......they don't open till 1100 but will be open when we get back and do a good Prato de Dia for 7.5€ for those feeling peckish!
Walking boots/stout trainers recommended and walking poles.
Usual caveats - all walks are at your own risk, and we do not walk if it is pouring with rain...no charge, of course...I will endeavour to put any cancellation note on this site by 0900 on the day of the walk.
I AM LIMITING NUMBERS TO 20 ON THESE WALKS ......ON A FIRST COME BASIS
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOW FULLY SUBSCRIBED AND IS CLOSED TO ANY MORE PEOPLE
Any questions , please ask or ring 282 380015 preferably between 1800-1900 or 0800-0900.
