27 October 2025 – Parcent to Murla


Lovely clear blue sky for our Monday walk

Sunday has been wet, grey and miserable

Which made us appreciate the sunny morning all the more

There were 25 of us today

 

About one third had not done this walk before

This is not a walk anyone is likely to find on their own

So the new members were in for a treat

I was a little concerned that the normally dry river might be difficult to cross

But in fact we could cross quite easily without getting wet

This is one of those walks with a variety of terrain

Including this lovely wooded section

Pierre and Lorraine were rightly proud of the wild pomegranate they picked

We had done this walk exactly two years earlier, and also found some fruit then

As always we had our banana break outside Murla church

It was quite shady there and only just warm enough to be comfortable

So we had a relatively short break

We used a slightly different route to return to Parcent

Fortunately the river was even easier to cross

We had 25 on the walk today

So once more we had to have a back marker

David accepted the task again

And all accepted the pace to keep everyone together

We usually have our after walk drink in the Cooperativa

But it is closed due to new management

Fortunately Blanca Bikes bar was open

And had plenty of room for us all to sit together

Temperature – 13-20c

Time Taken – 3.5 hours

Distance – 9 km
