Founding Editor Philip Faiers is currently undertaking a big adventure.
Despite his 57 years and two dodgy knees, he is walking the entire length of the Pyrénées,
from Hendaye to Banyuls a distance of 903km with a massive 49,000m of climb and descent
along the way. He is attempting the walk with a fellow Brit, Kingsley Hodgkins,
who is walking to raise money for a children¹s charity in Toulouse.
Any readers who find themselves in the Pyrénées are most welcome to join them.
For further information of their planned itinerary see www.gr10.org

I was looking forward to an easy day as the guide book said it was a five-hour walk. It took me eight hours! Still, the gîte in Mérens looks great and Martin and Anne and son Fraser have joined me and we're walking together again tomorrow. It was great to see Ruth, Julia, Jon and Lola again. It would be impossible without such a great back-up team.
