14 November 2022 – Jalon to Parcent


19 of us on today’s walk

This included Jan who has not walked with this group for four weeks

This was a gentle valley walk so she was encouraged to give it a go

It was nice for her to meet up with old friends again

The paths were mostly pretty good, and no climbing

All of which she managed really well

And, as always, she kept me firmly under control

We were lucky to have another pleasant sunny day

But not too hot, just right for walking

This walk includes long wooded sections

And the bright sunshine shows it at its best

It also meant that it was very comfortable for our banana break

We choose a spot with lovely views, but everyone is too busy talking to notice

The group was a little larger than we would prefer

But everyone knows each other so no one was left out

And the paths are so good that there was no danger of losing anyone

The pace increased as we neared Parcent

And our regular picnic spot at the font

Jan’s sweet distribution was welcome as always

Making for a very pleasant picnic lunch

It is a very good path returning to Jalon

And we made a new friend on the way

Ending in a nice drink at bar Claudia in Jalon

Temperature – 23c

Time taken – 5 hours

Distance – 14 km

Total Ascent – 150 metres
