Event Details

Sheila is back! She’s fully recovered from her fall and can’t wait to take you out on her Short & Sweet walks again. Thanks to everyone for all the sweet, caring messages. This week she’ll take you on the beautiful Heaven’s Gate walk.

There are some walks which are requested time and time again and this is one of those.

Departing from the sleepy village of Santa Agnes, we leave the church behind us and head into the forest following the tracks originally used by men making whitewash, where we can discover some of their old cal (lime) ovens which are still amazingly intact.

Let’s continue to meander through pine scented forests, foraging for herbs, rosemary, thyme and lavender before emerging on a headland with an incredible view point looking both north and south along the coast. From this 300m high vantage point with the azure blue sea below us, we can see the tip of Es Vedra and on a clear day as far as mainland Spain.

This week you can enjoy some mulled wine together with Sheila’s homemade cakes!

If you have a lovely well trained dog which is also socialized please bring them along. They will need to be on a lead on the roads & some of the beaches.

GUIDES:
All our guides are trained and have the ability to lead groups, they all carry a first aid kit and use walkie talkies to keep in contact with a back marker to make sure the group stays together and are safe. We also have strict departure and return procedure to ensure everyone is accounted for.
