WALK - MONDAY 26 APRIL 2021 - BARRAGEM ARADE

Post by Linda and Russell »

Wendy and Steve will be leading this walk around the Barragem. The walk is just short of 10 km. It is the walk they did on the 28 December. There is one long slow up, one down, the rest is flattish and on part of the Algarve way. There is one water crossing/jump round and you may need plastic bags for the feet if we have heavy rain the day before. There are nice views of the Barragem in places. The usual rules apply: bring a drink, wear suitable footwear, no charge and please respect social distancing.

Start time: 10am. Meeting point: Car park at the Barragem Arade GPS 37.239339 8.377420.

Directions: Drive to Silves, go over the bridge and turn right, follow the N124 for about 7kms until you see a turning on the left signposted "Barragem Do Arade 3kms". The signpost is in a small triangular traffic island which has a large palm tree on it. Drive in the direction of the Barragem for about 1km. You pass cafe A Rainha on the left, the road continues round to the left. Take a further sign for the Barragem on the left. As you approach the Barragem there is a roundabout, go left on the roundabout and parking is immediately on the left.

Please indicate below if you will be joining them on the walk. Numbers are restricted so we cannot take any new members at the moment.

Five of us walked today in the April showers. We only just made it across the stream, more water than usual after the last few days rain.
Barragem looked nearly full of water now!
