WALK - MONDAY 13 DECEMBER 2021 - ILHA DE ROSSARIO

Linda and Russell will be leading this popular walk by the confluence of the Arade and the Odelouca rivers around the Ilha de Rosario. Distance about 10kms. We will be taking the route up the hill so we can enjoy the nice views down to the river. There is just the one big hill and the rest is mostly flat. We will be walking on the narrow levada for some of the walk.

The usual rules apply, wear suitable footwear, bring a drink, walk at your own risk and no charge.

Directions: from CVO, cross the bridge into Silves & turn left on the N124 towards Monchique/Portimao. After a little under 5 km you will see the Mira Rio cafe & restaurant on your left after a sharpish right hand bend. Parking is at the café. You can also take the N124 from Portimao to Silves and the café is 5km on the right.

The cafe is closed on Mondays so best get a coffee on route. We are not organising a lunch after the walk but anyone he wants to have lunch could go to the "Chicken in the Gutter" restaurant at the market area in Silves, or the Ourque restaurants which is further along the road towards Portimao.

Please indicate below if you would like to join us as numbers will be restricted to maximum 20 walkers.

It was much cooler today and plenty of cloud, but great for walking. All the dogs got along well together.  The Mira Rio cafe was open so we all enjoyed drinks after the walk and 5 of us enjoyed the prato do dia and wine.

Lots of smiley faces, even the one dog who waited for the pose.
