By breakfast on day three, the continuing chatter of complaints
from our fellow walkers about the ascending and descending trails was almost
annoying as the nagging ache in my legs – and there was me thinking I was
getting quite fit!
Can’t understand why you come on a walking holiday and then
spend your time moaning about the walking. This is a great place for walking
with a seemingly endless selection of walking routes – from the hardcore GR
routes to gentle routes between the villages – admittedly still with a fair bit
of up and down.
Our walk today started in the cloud and mist – almost heavy
enough to be classed as rain – but by the time we had walked along the ridge from
Arure towards the coast the sun was out
and – with no shade at all – it warmed up quickly. Luckily Juan
Miguel took us to the only tree on the entire mountainside for our lunch stop.
We
finished with a mile long descent from about 700m down to sea level. We had
time for a swim on the beach but decided to settle for a cold beer instead and
a quick paddle before our ride home.
