6 April 2023 – Parcent to Murla


Fifteen of us for today’s walk

It was chilly at the start

But it soon warmed up to a pleasant 19c  

Victoria joined us for her first walk today

Also Marlies from our Monday group

We were pleasantly surprised to have to give way to a herd of sheep

The shepherd was less pleased and told us we were on the wrong track

He was right; we use this track because the official path is in terrible condition after serious rain damage many years ago

This walk is half of last Monday’s Orba Castle

So it was very familiar to Alan and Ali who had also done the Monday walk

The abandoned restaurant has now been fenced off

And there appears to be someone living in the house

But no sign of any work on the main restaurant itself

It felt much warmer than the official 19c on the way back

Though a cool breeze stopped us over heating

The warm spring weather seemed set to continue

With no rain forecast for the next week at least

No doubt the gardeners will be complaining soon

We spent almost two hours in the Parcent cooperativa

What better way to finish a pleasant walk than a long, cold drink in good company

Temperature – 10-19c

Time taken – 3 hours

Distance – 9 km
