Re: WALK - MONDAY 1 JUNE 2026 - Honey Cafe

Linda & Russell had a good crowd at the earlier time of 0900....actually leaving a few minutes easrlier but without me ( drinking a hot coffee) & nursing a gammy knee. 20260601_085723.jpg It was hot.... supported by the loan of a knee brace from Kim, I wandered off in pursuit, but after 40 mins on t...

Re: Walk Monday 25 May 2026 ; Casinhas

Hi all
Unfortunately, I have damaged my knee and can't go on any walks. Linda and Russell have kindly agreed to lead in my place, my thanks to them have a good walk.

Walk Monday 25 May 2026 ; Casinhas

We will be back for the next 3 walks..... PS...but see post below about Linda & Russell now leading. Track is fairly undulating, nothing too steep, perhaps apart from an early climb, with minimal loose scree. Linda & Russell have shown us an easier way back avoiding a steep descent. Lovely countrysi...

Re: Walk 2 march 2026 : Moinha de Rocha

Last time we did this, it was 12.1km, took 2h 26m, with 221m ascent, speed...a very fast 5kmh. This time, we must have aged, it was 11.3kms, still 2h 26 m moving time but 2h 46m overall, speed down to 4.5kmh. Anyway, 14 Walkers and 12 lunchers had a good walk and lunch....without any rain....though ...

Re: Walk 23 February : Western Funcho.Closed.

A flurry of late cancellations meant 16 walkers and 15 lunchers. Lovely sunny day, not too much of a problem getting to barragem.... 20260223_104046.jpg One landslip... 20260223_105532.jpg Great to see barragem full: 20260223_111422.jpg 20260223_110814.jpg Some subsidence though.... 20260223_113608....

Walk 2 march 2026 : Moinha de Rocha

Hi all We did a walk from her 10 years ago to celebrate Alan's 70th.....a slightly different walk now as he's had his 80th. Sue's ode to Alan is worth a read, as are a look at the younger faces....see: http://ww.forum.carvoeiro.com/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=27000&start=15 Note though that these water cro...

Re: Walk 16 Monday February 2026: Oriq.CLOSED.

Thanks for photos Rob.....we set off on a lovely morning for a change, but soon came across an impaasse! 20260216_104635.jpg Fortunately, Linda had a work around and we did a good 2.5 hour walk, followed by usual nice lunch at Oriq , outside, although there was rather a long wait! Lunch took longer ...

Walk 23 February : Western Funcho.Closed.

Walk is now closed. A walk and restaurant we last visited in Feb 2024. It's a just under 2.5 hours and it has a couple of steady inclines, but is otherwise predominantly flat(ish), 11kms. A couple of the descents can be a bit slippery with loose scree. Lovely views of a full barragem. Expect to find...
