Short Breaks in France

We had an amazing trek with spectacular scenery. Each day was carefully planned and we had a full briefing of what was to come. We were helped by wall to wall sunshine every walking day which meant we could make the most of the views. Our group of eight all got on well and walked at a similar pace which meant we were always together as a group. Lunches were made from supplies bought by the guide and were varied and plentiful. The hotels were more than acceptable with a few excellent.

The week was very well organized and very well led by Egle. The accommodation and food were great and each day’s walk was an adventure.

Like a previous reviewer I found this much harder that Toubkal or EBC. The walks seem to be up all morning and down in the afternoon. Some of the downs were very hard on the Knees. Despite this the effort was well rewarded with the stunning scenary. Having to put your tent away before brerakfast required some effort, specially if you didn’t master the technique. Camp meals were always filling, and never went hungary. Although breakfast did get a bit repetitive. The group van always contained a cold beer at the end of the day, which was very welcome. I hired my sleeping bag and matt from exodus and the bag was nice and warm, but maybe the matts could have been a bit thicker. Really felt the rocks some nights. Would bring my own next time
