Each week up to two walks are organised in the Silver Coast region of Portugal
Every Wednesday we hold a short walk (max 7 km) and on alternate Fridays we hold a long walk (10 to 20 km).
Everyone is welcome to join a walk, you can do a voluntary donation to cover costs of organisation.
People walk at their own risk. Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on short leash at all times. Normally we start at 10:00. Of course you can do the walks on your own as well. Just download the gpx file.
