Walk Monday 30 January 2017 b: Cafe Elias (CLOSED)
Posted: Sat Dec 24, 2016 1:24 pm
A walk last done in april last year, so about time we repeated it.....but walk now closed.
Degree of difficulty ( scale 1 to 5 ) : 2.5 Moderate/ Energetic
A lovely walk in the hills behind Silves , moderate ascents and descents , lovely views. Just over 2 hours.
Directions:From CVO, go over Silves bridge and right on N124 for about 4kms, driving past 2 cafes, one called " Casa de Pasta a Norinha" and one " A Coriana" , both on the left hand side of the road.
Turn left along an unmarked road, almost opposite some abandoned blue and white domed buildings. Cafe Elias is about 100m on the left : park opposite.
Start :10.00 am.
Wear stout trainers/walking boots....a walking pole would be useful. Sunhats hopefully recommended, but some wet weather gear might come in handy.
Please note that the walk will be cancelled of the weather is poor. I shall put a note on this website at about 0830 that morning, 0900 at the latest.
All walks at your own risk.
There is no charge.
Please indicate below if you are intending to come. The winter walks were rather congested and we had to limit numbers to about 20.
Any questions, ring 282 380015, before 0900 or after 6pm ....but not before 9 January.
The cafe does not do lunch...if Casinhas is open by then, we could go there, about 3kms away.
