- Monte Capanne
The rocky path up Monte Capanne. - Portoferraio and Castello del Volterraio
Hike up the Cima del Monte (515 m). A wonderful path with views of Portoferraio and Castello del Volterraio. - Wild boar family!
In broad daylight. Mum with a bunch of squeakers. - Wild boar family!
There is seven of them! Plus the mum, of course. - Towards Cima del Monte
The path (the wild boar family now gone) towards Cima del Monte (515 m). - Pena park
We decided to take a walk through the Pena gardens (and not visit the palace this time). - Château de Chenonceau
The avenue leading to the castle. Great shade in the summer heat. - Digue de la Duchesse-Anne
The constructions of these dykes started in the 11th and 12th century. The dykes still separate cultivated polders and salty marshlands. And of course offer a great opportunity to hike or cycle :-) - Pointe du Grouin
GR34. So so so tempting, but we needed to move on. - Cap d'Erquy
If you can, take a walk on Cap d'Erquy. You will not regret it. - Cap d'Erquy
- Cap d'Erquy
It was insanely hot walking here, no shadow in sight. But it was worth it. - Cairn of Barnenez
The tumulus contains 11 chambers entered by separate passages. - Mont Saint-Michel de Brasparts
The consequences of a terrible fire in 2022. - La Roque-Gageac
- Puy de Pariou
One of the most photogenic volcanoes around there. Unfortunately the weather was quite meh so (this time) we didn't climb the Puy the Dôme. - Puy de Pariou
What an interesting fence. - Puy de Pariou
Puy de Pariou with Puy de Dôme in the background. Of course once we decided not to climb the Dôme but the Pariou, the skies cleared. - Puy de Pariou
I'm happy we chose this path for the way down.
