15 for our first day walk since the summer break
Should have been 16, but unusually one did not turn up at the start
Lovely morning and ideal conditions for a walk
We went into Senija for the first time since Covid restrictions
Colin briefed us on the newest wall art
We had our banana break in the square by the church
Some of the group has not been to Senija before
Always interesting to visit the centre of the village rather than drive past on the main road
This was our first climb in many weeks
And some found it to be a challenge
However we did have frequent water stops to enjoy the views
Which despite the cloud were as impressive as ever
A large group passed us as we recovered before climbing to the cross
They left soon after we arrived, but a second large group arrived soon after
I had offered the option of missing the cross, but I was glad that they talked me out of that option
We had a light rain shower as we set off after lunch
But fortunately it did not last long, and we did not need our waterproofs
And it was sunny again by the time we reached Lliber
Where we all had a well deserved drink, and David a very large vodka and tonic
As always the drink in the square was the best part of the walk
Time taken – 5.5 hours
Distance – 12 km
Total ascent – 390 metres
Temperature – 17-22c
