点评:An epic walk......
By two little old ladies in their mid 70s s but young at heart.
The walk is signposted 12.5 k and there is a steep descent and ascent at either end. Spectacular but not an easy walk as it is basically the bed of the river for most of the way. It was luckily dry or the boulders would have been very slippery. It involved climbing large boulders and some bits with ropes like via ferrata.
No problems with following the route! There was a great mix of people tackling it so camaraderie was very apparent - as we stumbled onto the road at the end we got a burst of applause from the youngsters ahead of us waiting for the taxi !
It took us 8 hours , with short stops, being aware of the distance and terrain to go .And being conscious of taking care on the rocks - another hiker fell and cracked her ribs and badly bruised her face.
As the day went on we hardly spoke aware of the time and distance to be covered. The sign at the start of the walk suggests 6 hours but obviously some people do it in less.
The plants and wild life were worth every moment of the walk, including the tadpoles endemic to the gorge. A one point the frogs were very audible!
There was a great sense of achievement and relief in downing a litre of lager!!!!!
Welived to tell the tale but in Puglia on undulating ground this year....
翻译:史诗般的步行......
两位70多岁但内心年轻的小老太太。
步道标有 12.5 k 的路标,两端都有陡峭的下坡和上坡。景色壮观,但步行并不容易,因为大部分时间它基本上都是河床。幸运的是天气干燥,否则巨石会很滑。它涉及攀登大石块和一些带有绳索的部分,例如铁索攀岩。
遵循路线没有任何问题!解决这个问题的人很多,所以友情非常明显——当我们最后跌跌撞撞地走上马路时,我们得到了前面等出租车的年轻人的一阵掌声!
我们花了 8 个小时,中间有短暂停留,了解要走的距离和地形。并注意在岩石上小心——另一位徒步旅行者摔倒了,肋骨骨折,脸严重擦伤。
随着时间的流逝,我们几乎不知道要走的时间和距离。步行开始处的标志建议需要 6 小时,但显然有些人会花更少的时间。
植物和野生动物都值得步行的每一刻,包括峡谷特有的蝌蚪。有一分青蛙的声音非常好听!
喝下一升啤酒有一种巨大的成就感和解脱感!!!!
我们很高兴讲述这个故事,但今年在普利亚起伏的地面上......
