22 January 2024 – Parcent to Murla

 

 Sunny but very cold start to the walk

Had to cancel last week due to cold/flu

Not fully recovered yet

But so pleased to be able to walk again

It warmed up quite quickly once we got going

And the first layer of clothing was soon removed

A lot of work going on as we reached the dry river at Murla

It looked so different that I had to check my satnav

There should have been 18 on today’s walk

But two missed the start; they could not find the car park

Most were in shirt sleeves when we reached Mural

But it was still necessary to have our picnic in the sun

Most of the group know this walk quite well

So it was quite strung out on the way back to Parcent

Not much of a problem with a valley walk

Where no one is going to get lost anyway

We followed a new track between Mural and Parcent

This new hand rail part of a lot of track clearance

And also better sign posted than it used to be

Very enjoyable walk and managed much better than I feared

Temperature – 5 to 12c

Time taken – 3 hours

Distance – 9 km
