Itinerary description

(from Silvercoastwalks.com)
The pine woods at Calhau and close to Praia do Norte
The first part is downhill through pine woods, followed by a section of quiet road and then uphill across open land with fine views along the coast. The next stage of the walk is uphill into the square at Sitio, we go along the road which leads to the fort on the headland. The final stage is partly on pavements through Sitio. Underfoot the ground is sandy and then a firm path.
=====================================

The route for todays walk took us through pine and eucalyptus forest, coastal dunes, and along North Beach to the Sitio Fort made famous by “100 Foot Wave”. Thanks to Warren for leading.

Todays walkers hailed from Portugal, Belgium, France, Netherlands, UK, New Zealand, S. Africa, and United States.
