Seventeen of us for the first walk of 2023
This is always an impressive walk, but particularly today
The forecast was for overcast but dry
In fact it turned out to be sunny but windy
It is a very steep climb from the village to our banana stop
And we were all very pleased to have an opportunity to sit down and enjoy the view
Refreshed by our 15 minute break we continued the climb to the aerials
We had another break at the picnic site
And then the final climb to the aerials
Where we had the traditional group photo
The a gentle walk to our picnic site
Not only did the sun shine, but the wind stopped as well
This must be one of the best sites for a picnic
And also for a dramatic photo
We spend half an hour here
Another group photo
Then back along the ridge
With its extensive views
And down to Benimeli
Bar Citrus in Orba was the nearest one open
Temperature – 19c
Time taken – 4.5 hours
Distance – 7km
Total Ascent - 410
