This is a new addition to our walk programme
At present we have 12 valley walks, each 9km and about three hour’s duration
We also have three longer walks
These are Isbert Dam, Olta and Bernia
This makes a total of 15 walks
Each year we have 41 walking days (weather permitting)
So we would repeat each walk about three times a year
I would like to increase the number of walks available
However they have to be suitable for the group as a whole
Isbert Dam has a scramble and is a little longer at about 3.5 hours
Olta is a shorter version of the Olta circuit also about 3.5 hours
Bernia is from the car park to the fort, again about 3.5 hours
I would like to add another 5 suitable walks, making a total of 20
This would mean that we do each walk twice a year
This is the first of those extra five walks
The distance is about 9km, but the track is more difficult than normal
It took 3.5 hours to complete
A few members found it more of a challenge than normal
One found it very difficult, but that was due to a medical condition
Most completed it without difficulty
More important they all enjoyed it, and want to do it again
This was the easiest of the proposed new walks
We will try another one in two or three weeks
Temperature – 12 to 20c
Time taken –3.5 hours
Distance – 9 km
