A review of progress

As Boronia mentioned, we have now come down out of les hautes alpes, and the walking is much easier.

We began in Briancon on Tuesday 14 September, and spent nights in each of hte following locations: Bouchier, L'Argentiere Les Besses, Mont Dauphin, Chateauroux Les Alpes, Embrun, Savines Le Lac, Montgardin, Gap, where we had a rest day, Venterol, La Motte du Caire, Saint Genieux, Sisteron, Peipan, Les Grandes Molieres, Lurs (Le grande bastide), and Forcalquiere.

 Our cumulative walking distance is around 270 kms to date, though the ups and downs, sometimes exceeding 1000 metres in the days walking, has moderated out total.

The next  towns on our route include Lincel, Cereste, Apt,  Coustellet, Orgon, St Renee de Provence, Fontvieille and Arles.

I have just lost a section of text....will have to wait our next post to enlighten you all of its contents

  1. Dear Boronia and Mike,

    Got your blog link on Friday, just as we were about to head out to a long weekend in Royal National Park. We only did about 12-13 kms a day as it was a very wet weekend in Sydney.

    We have really enjoyed reading your blog and look forward to further additions. It weems as though you are now getting into some kind of rhythm, after the early fights with the bed bug.

    Keep smiling.

    Maurice and Leigh
