2 December 2024 – Tormos Isbert Dam


22 on today’s walk

These two greeted us as we walked through Tormos

 Jan is still having problems with her hip

But didn’t want to miss the walk

A surprising number had not done this walk before

So we stopped to enjoy the views, including “the bull run”

Until you see the photographs, it’s easy to forget what a lovely walk this is

Particularly on a sunny day like this

Richard and Helen joined us for their first walk

They moved to Pego a few months ago

The scramble across the river was the bit Jan was worried about

And was very grateful for Pierre’s help

This has never been her favourite part of this walk

But she managed much better than she expected

As always we had our banana stop just after the abandoned rail tunnel

Where we also had the traditional group photo

Even with a large group there is plenty of seating for everyone

I was given the task of handing out the boiled sweets, which are always welcome

The rest of the walk is mostly flat, and on good road surface

We can enjoy the views instead of looking at our feet all the time

By now the early morning chill was replaced by the warm sun

And outer layers of clothing removed

The detour past the horses was particularly attractive

And we had frequent water stops to enjoy the views

Always a good opportunity to take photos

Unfortunately both bars in Tormos were closed


Temperature – 17-20c

Time Taken – 3.5 hours

Distance – 9 km
