Linda and Russell will be leading this walk. We head out into a remote quiet valley with lots of pine trees and a couple of baragems. It will be shady in the pine forest. The walk is about 10 kms and on good tracks. There are gradual uphills but nothing too steep. There are 3 x lots of bee hives which we pass but should be okay at this time of year. Bring a pole if you use one, a drink and wear good footwear, walk at your own risk and no charge.

Meeting point: Cafe Pasto Riba E Serra, Rasmalho. Meeting time: 9.45am.

Directions to meeting point: Exit the N125 at Portimao following the sign to Monchique. At the roundabouts keep following the sign for Monchique. You will come onto the N266, then pass a petrol station on the left. After a km you will come into Rasmalho and the cafe is on the left hand side.

Please park on the right hand side as we will car share to the start of the walk which is 3kms further along.

The cafe should be open for coffee before the start.

If you would like to stay for lunch after the cafe do a standard Portuguese menu for around 12 euros with drinks included.

Please indicate below if you would like to join the walk and if you are staying for lunch. Contact on the day is: 0044 7960552618. Numbers will be limited to 20 walkers for safety reasons.

Hi Linda, Sorry to say that we won’t be able to make the walk. My brother’s flight lands sooner than I thought. I thought it was early afternoon but it turns out to be 10.30!
Best,
