The first long distance path or Ireland is 127km, but I had to give up 14km from from the end because of poor weather. It was rainy and windy for 3 days out of 4, with a real storm on the last day... pity. But I still enjoyed the hike! |

A weekend in the foret des Coulmes, a very remote area in
Vercors. A quiet evening around the fire, before the forest wakes up...
suddenly, a lot of noise around us... some
paths... sounding like human paths.. probably a wild boar... but if it
was a...?!! arrrg... difficult to fall asleep in those conditions. Finally, we
managed to sleep (not much!) and woke up in the morning very relieved
to see lights and the surroundings.... This forest is very scary!
