The Pyrenees are a walker's paradise. From the glory and majesty
of the high peaks to the forested slopes of the sheltered
valleys, the Pyrenees really have it all. Stretching
from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean they are dotted
with forts and castles - the legacy of the history of
this much disputed region.
Blessed with warm weather through the walking season, any holiday
in this region is only further enhanced by the wonderful regional
cooking. Visit the Pyrenees at your peril - after you've been
here once you will be planning your return visits for years
to come!
Our independent walking holiday is based in the Canigou Massif
region of the Oriental Pyrenees as the mountains gradually
fall to the warm Mediterranean sea. Our route is along waymarked
paths - including large sections of the GR10 pyrenean walking
route. Note that most days include in the region of 1000 metres of
ascent /descent which is the reason that the distances do not
seem overly long. |
