The
Pyrenees is a range of mountains running along the border between
Spain and France, in Europe. They are approximately 600 Kms. long,
but for a traveller on foot, the distance to walk the entire range
is approximately 850 Kms. The Pyrenees are said to be "a wonderland
to the holiday-maker", whether your interests be backpacking,
mountain biking, skiing or simply the desire for adventure. The
recently developed coast to coast long distance footpaths (Atlantic
to Mediterranean): the Spanish GR11 and the French GR10, offer a
superb opportunity to pass through green countryside, climbing snow
white peaks and valleys of untouched natural beauty. In the past
thirty years the Pyrenees have been rediscovered and is everyday
increasing in popularity and becoming an alternative to the well-known
Alps. |
