Welcome to the homepage of the El Valle Asociación de Propietarios walking group. 

Introduction

Walks are normally organised for the second Thursday of the month at 6.00pm and have been well supported and enjoyed by all.  (Currently the walks are starting at 6.00pm during the summer months but will change to a more suitable time during the day for the cooler months, starting with the October walk, please consult the newsletter if in doubt).

 So far there have been a mixed ability group of walkers and not all the same people on each walk, members and some non-members enjoying the walks and the after walk social get together.  We would like to see more people coming out and enjoying a friendly walk through our beautiful area followed by a social get together.  At the moment we have several walk organisers but  if anyone else would like to lead a walk, please contact Anne or Stewart.  Telephone numbers in the Newsletter.

La Vinuela

The first walk in June was led by Stewart Common and Elaine Edwards and started at the bottom end of Vinuela village.  It skirted up through the bottom of the village and out towards the lake and back.  Twenty-one people turned up and completed the walk in about two hours, most ending up in the Bar Venta de Vina in Vinuela for a drink and some of us dined.

12 July 2007 Venta Baja

The second walk in July started from Meson Sara in Puente and was led by Eddie Kemp, eighteen people came along to this one and we all headed up through Venta Baja village and up to Venta Alto and back, a slightly harder walk but we all enjoyed it.  We completed the walk in over two hours and ended up at the bar for drinks and meals (again).  

9 August 2007 Lake Vinuela

The third walk in August was led by Peter and Anne Dibden, this started from the Camping Bar car park and went out around the lake side path/track for quite a while, we then turned left and up through the roads and houses towards Km 29 eventually turning back down the valley towards the camping site. Sixteen people completed the walk in about two hours and most of us went to the Pantano Restaurant afterwards for a meal and of course the obligatory drink.

Forthcoming walks:

13 November 2008 Velez-Malaga Will be a bit different. We have arranged for a Walking Tour around Historic town of Velez Malaga, this will be led by the historian Michael. He will lead and talk about many of the places of historical interest around the town, this will be supported with handouts giving various pieces of relevant information of the places visited. This walk will be limited to maximum 20 persons and will cost 10 euros per person and will take 2-3 hours, after the walk for the people interested we will go to a restaurant for a meal and chat (cost of the meal etc will be each persons responsibility). Bookings and money will be taken at the Monday market or at one of the walks by one of the committee present. Please don't leave this to the last minute as we are defiantly limited to a max 20 people, no money, no place. The start will be at 11.00am and the start location will be notified in the next newsletter.
