Ramblers Association of Malta: Cirkewwa and Qammieh 27th April 2008

Cirkewwa and Qammieh 27th April 2008

This walk was a repeat of the 1st April 2007 walk, with a slight variation at the end. Instead of heading back up the cliff from Rdum il-Qawwi, we continued walking past Ras il-Qammieh, and headed up the cliff from a series of steps leading to the road on the top. Some pictures below.

Walk Leaders: Romano assisted by Simon.
Duration: about 3 1/1 hours.

Our beginnings

The Ramblers Association of Malta was set up in February 2005 on the initiative of Lino Bugeja who had long led a one-man campaign in the press against whole swathes of countryside and a good number of country paths and lanes being closed off little by little by means of gates, fences and those ubiquitous signs claiming " RTO " or suchlike. The initial meeting to set up the association held at the Din l-Art Helwa premises in Valletta attracted a turnout of around 300 persons eager to share their experiences and do something positive to reclaim the countryside for the benefit of all. An ad-hoc committee was set up to start the ball rolling in preparation for the first general meeting held in October 2005. Once again the public responded positively to this meeting and a committee was elected to serve for two years with the energetic Lino Bugeja being reconfirmed as President of the Association
