5 December 2022 – Jalon to Parcent

It should have been Tarbena today

But I cancelled due to a particularly bad weather forecast

Having also cancelled last Thursday I really wanted to walk today

So we arranged to meet at Jalon and decide what to do depending on the actual weather

It was overcast, but dry, so we agreed to walk to Parcent via Alcalali

I was pleased that ten of us braved the weather forecast

It has turned much colder, so we walked at a faster pace

We also wore more layers of clothing than previously

Obviously some felt the cold more than others

But most kept their jackets on throughout the walk

The weather improved during the latter half of the walk

And we even had some sunshine as we neared Jalon

I was glad to have opted to walk despite the forecast

It was much more enjoyable walking

Than sitting at home feeling miserable

We arrived back in Jalon earlier than normal

And went to Riu Rau for our after walk drink

We probably should have sat inside

But felt more comfortable outside as it was lunch time

 

Despite that we were made to feel very welcome

And it was a fitting end to a very enjoyable walk

Temperature – 12c

Time taken – 4 hours

Distance –12 km

 Total Ascent – 100 metres
