16 of us for today’s walk
Yet another sunny day, though much cooler and quite windy
Everywhere looking its best in the winter sunshine
It was nice to welcome Marie back after a break in the UK
Living in Denia, this was a local walk for David and Sabine
We started the Soldates climb as a group
But were soon split up and climbing at our own pace
P8
We were surprised to find a cyclist at the top, though pushing his bike
Great sense of achievement to reach the summit
Too cold to stay there too long, soon set off down again
Reached our sheltered lunch spot right on time
Even sheltered from the wind we still needed our jackets
Fully refreshed and rested we now had a pleasant walk ahead
We also had one more spectacular viewpoint
Much lower than the summit this is still my favourite view of the walk
We stopped for ten minutes to admire the view
Exposed to the wind it was too cold to stop for longer
Then it was a long descent on a difficult track
Finally reaching Gata right on time
And a much needed drink
Temperature – 16c
Time taken – 5.5 hours
Distance – 12km
Total Ascent – 566 metres
