28 September 2026 – Lliber to Senija

 

The weather forecast for today was not good throughout the week

It promised 60% chance of rain throughout the period we were due to walk

So I left the final decision whether to walk until Sunday morning

The forecast changed day by day, and often many times a day

But on Sunday morning it was 25c and dry throughout the morning

So I sent the email to confirm the walk

It was about 21c as we met in Lliber

But the humidity was very high, and the clouds black

As you can see from the first photo it looked like it might rain at any time

However it was sunny and blue sky in the direction of Senija

The sky quickly cleared as we walked

And the temperatures rose

So did the humidity

Half of the walk to Senija is on a difficult, rocky track

And it was hard going for most of the group

Even worse for Martin who was suffering with Plantar Faciitis

I have suffered with this complaint for many years

So I know only too well how painful it can be

Despite the pain he choose to continue the walk rather than return to Lliber

Because of the heat the pace was slower than normal

And it took us four hours to complete the walk

We were all very pleased to get back to Lliber square and a long cold drink

Temperature – 21 to 25c

Time taken – 4 hours

Distance – 11km
