23 November – Monday Ramblers – Jalon to Parcent

 

Eight on the walk today due to change in numbers allowed

It makes it much easier now that pretty well anyone who wants to walk can do so

It always seemed very unfair to have to pick and choose who could walk

Gus joined us for the first time today and fit in very well


 You will see from the stats below that it has turned much colder lately

However as always it soon warms up when we get walking


 This was the first time that we have done this particular walk

And I had expected it to take at least four hours

So I cut a few corners off to make better time

Then we found the path between Parcent and the Ermita closed

There was major work going on to lay cables

And they wouldn’t even allow walkers through

Fortunately we managed to cut through a few fields

The work finished just before the Ermita

So we were able to have our picnic there as planned

We finished in less than four hours

Which has encouraged me to try slightly longer routes in future

 

Stats

Time taken – 3.5 hours

Distance – 11 km

Total Ascent – 100 metres

Temperature – 12-18c
