We have sussed out todays route and there’s a big uphill today, the only thing was we forgot to see ehere it started.So after leaving we startwalking uphill. The road winds up the valley again following the stream. To our left and to our right are large hills. Is it one of them we are going to climb.No as we turn yet another corner more hills appear. We continue climbing steadily up.Eventually a path leads off to our left, cyclists are signed to follow the road. A quick check of the map and we proceed down the footpath. Down being the opetative word. This however was short lived and the real climb started.Walking up along the edge of the hill looking across the valley we could see other walkers and ould see we had a lot more height to gain.I thought that there would be as much downhill as uphill today, but I was wrong and we continued on up for most of the day. At one point the path was steeper and more difficult than the Pyrenees.
