Walk Tuesday 8 Jan 2019 : Cafe Torinho. CLOSED
Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2018 6:02 pm
Walk is now closed.
Our first of 2019.
It covers part of the valley from the Agua Bellas walk, but includes some steep ascents, and thus some lovely views.
We won't have time to check the water levels in the streams, but they are usually fordable.....
Overall difficulty ( scale 1 to 5 ) : 3, Energetic.
Start:10.00am
Duration : About 2 h 30 mins.
Directions: Drive over bridge at Silves & turn right at traffic lights. At next roundabout take the 2nd exit towards the castle. Passing the cemetery walls on your right take next turn right. Follow this road until you reach the Cafe Terinho on the left hand side, about 4 kms from the roundabout in Silves. Please note that Google Maps calls it Cafe Silves ; it might have changed its name!
Please do not park in front of the cafe : there is plenty of space alongside the road after it......or in a carpark, 150m on the right after the cafe.
Please wear stout trainers or, preferably, walking boots. Walking poles, sun cream, hats and water also recommended.
If the weather is bad, we won't walk : but if showery, please bring something waterproof.
Any cancellation notice will be posted here by 0900 on the day ; please check if in doubt...or ring me.
All walks are at your own risk.
No charge, of course.
Due to increased numbers on walks, we are limiting numbers to 20 so it is ESSENTIAL that you indicate below if you want to come...and if you want lunch.
