Nice to welcome Duncan and Marilyn on their first Monday Walk
They did a Monday summer walk, but this is their first full walk
The aim today was to find a shorter version of the Denia to Javea Windmills walk
We started at Marina car park as usual
The along Les Rotas to the end of the promenade
The next stage was uphill to the abandoned urbanisation
But the road was closed and blocked by a new wall and gate
So I had to improvise an alternative walk
We agreed to climb the road to the tower
Then set off across La Plana towards Javea
We had our banana stop at the tower
Then set off towards Javea
We walked until 1300 then considered our options
Half of the group wanted to be back by 1500 as planned
On the way back we stopped to view the abandoned urbanisation across the valley
We had our picnic lunch at the tower
Where we could admire the extensive sea views
Then back down to the sea front and the long walk back to the cars
Agreed against the usual stop at a bar half way back to the cars
And managed to arrive back just after 1500 as planned
Temperature – 17 to 19c
Time taken – 5 hours
Distance – 16 km
Total Ascent - 335 metres
