It was nice to get back to our comfortable
valley ramble after Montgo last week
There were 21 of us on this walk
That included Adrian who is here for a
few months
It also included Barry and Linda back
again after a few weeks in the UK
Ideal walking conditions with blue
sky, warm sun and a light breeze
And the valley was looking
particularly attractive
It was very colourful with yellow,
white, pink and purple flowers
No idea what they are all called, but
they did look lovely
It was particularly pleasant walking along the pipeline with the sunlight through the trees
I have taken this view many times, but
I never tire of it
I was quite surprised that I did not get much feedback from our Montgo walk
It has made me consider whether to continue to offer the challenge walks or not
The aim is to give everyone the
opportunity to get a taste of one of the best known local walks
For example we walk to Bernia fort, rather
than through the forat
It is still a harder walk than our
normal valley walks
But most members should be able to do
it with a little more effort than normal
However the reward of impressive views
has got to be worth the extra effort
And the lack of response has made me
wonder whether that is the case or not
I don’t want to stop them entirely,
but I will not offer the more challenging ones again
Most weeks we now have 20 plus on each
walk
Which is too large for some of our
usual bars
The exception is NoNombre which welcomes larger groups
The owner is a very loud character, who always makes us feel welcome
Temperature – 22c
Time taken – 3.5 hours
