Salem Amble Christmas Day 2022
Leader: Joe Bellenie Mobile 636 44 32 77

Please don't reply to this email but direct any queries to joebelleniegm@gmail.com, including your mobile number and the details of how many are in your party.

Start time
We meet 11:00 at the Bar L’Era Salem, after coffee we drive to the start of the walk following my car. Friends and family welcome.

Route & Description
5K in total, with our picnic break halfway, but hilly and not so good underfoot in places, so stout footwear and sticks are recommended. Dogs are welcome but should be kept under control at the rear of the group.
The festive picnic is to share. We lay tables with Christmas table cloths and spread out the goodies. We usually take a selection of festive tapas plus Cava. Bring whatever you think is suitable, not forgetting cutlery and plates etc.
If bad weather occurs I will email you on the evening before the walk and again by 09:30 on Christmas morning.

How to get there
Take CV60 from Gandia. Leave CV60 signposted to Rafol de Salem CV 615 (don’t go to Rafol). Turn right on to the CV614 to Salem. As you enter Salem, Bar L’Era is on your right hand side. It takes about 45 minutes to get to Salem from Oliva.
You can park in front of Bar L’Era or in the road to the left of the Bar. If you need to car share please let me know.
Things you will need
Festive picnic to share, Cava optional.
Walking shoes, sticks, water.
We are pleased to announce we have a potential new group, Strollers!
The strollers group is designed for those members who can no longer cope with the Amblers and Walkers more challenging walks.
The strolls will be on level paths in good underfoot condition. We meet in a café for coffee and then have a stroll, Dogs are welcome if well behaved.
If you are interested contact the leader, Joe Bellenie at strollers@u3aoliva.org
Our first tryout stroll was at Font Salada and eight members enjoyed the experience.
Our first official group stroll we be on Tuesday December 20th.
We will meet at the Cafebar "El Parque" in Oliva which is on El Parque, Avinguda de Valencia, at 10:30 for coffee. Stroll starting at 11:00 along the Green Way, which follows the old railway to Gandia.
Please contact the leader if you want to attend.
