WALK - MONDAY 9 NOVEMBER FUNCHO - ADDITIONAL WALK
WALK - MONDAY 9 NOVEMBER FUNCHO - ADDITIONAL WALK
Due to low participation on the walk last Wednesday, and as there is a waiting list on the Linda and Russell walk on November 9, we are proposing to do the Funcho walk on Monday.
Start : 10.00, but please try to arrive at the start by 9:45
Duration : About 2 hours 20 mins.
Degree of difficulty (Scale 1-5) : 3 (Energetic for 20%, Easy for 80%).
Dogs. Dogs are allowed as long as they are under control and are quiet.
Directions : drive from CVO to Silves, go over the bridge and turn right and follow the N124 for about 7 kms until you see a turning on the left signposted "Barragem do Arade”.
Drive in the direction of the Barragem for 1km when there is a restaurant on the left ( A Rainha): turn right, signposted Canestros and Gregorios.
Drive through both Canestros and Gregarios for 3kms then make a sharp left turn, almost doubling back on yourself. Drive for 2kms until you come to a T junction at the top of the hill, turn right, drive through the village of Vale Fuzeiros, and the O Gralha is one of the last buildings on the left. Please park opposite.
Map ref : 37.2534693 N, 8.3454438W
Usual caveats - all walks are at your own risk, and we do not walk if it is pouring with rain.....I will endeavour to put any cancellation note on this site by 8:30 on the day of the walk.
Any questions, please ask or ring 00 33 624 624 792 .

We had beautiful sunshine for our walk, followed by lunch at O Gralha. Due to yesterday's rain, there were a few puddles on the trail...
